Putting The Family First

Putting The Family First

On the editorial page of the Wall Street Journal nearly ten years ago there appeared these words: “Families were created to make up for what evolution did not provide, namely a way by which men could be induced to support the children they beget and care for the women they impregnate.”
That, we might suggest, is the social bottom-line. Many people see more emotional and spiritual aspects to marriage. One such is the guest this week In Conversation with Noel Cheer on Triangle Television -- the National Director of Family First NZ, Bob McCoskrie.

Triangle Television, Wednesday 26th of December at 7:00pm, repeated on Thursday 27th of December at 12 noon.

Triangle Television, the home of public broadcasting, can be received in the Auckland region on UHF Channels 41, 42 and 52.

Triangle Television is also transmitted live on streaming TV which can be received (as a live feed) on broadband-connected computers and on Internet-connected television sets throughout New Zealand. Point your Media Server or Browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, ...) to www.ecasttv.co.nz

From next February, Triangle Television will be re-branded as "Face Television" and will be available on Sky Channel 89. Face Television will continue to broadcast on UHF in Auckland until later in the year when the analogue service will be withdrawn. Further details will be provided as they become available.

In Conversation with Noel Cheer receives funding from New Zealand on Air. This has enabled us to introduce viewers to over 200 New Zealanders on Air during nearly 6 years of unbroken weekly broadcasting.
