In one of Broadcasting's worst
kept secrets, Bill Ralston was officially installed as head
of news and current affairs at TVNZ this week. Bill himself
has been talking to lots of media people all week and is a
little tired of it all. Therefore, Nationals Broadcasting
spokesperson Katherine Rich will discuss his appointment and
offer her predictions of where Bill will take the national
broadcaster.
In what will be the biggest
deployment of NZ troops since the second world war, it was
announced this week that we, along with our Australian
counterparts, will be sending both police and army personnel
to the lawless Solomon Islands. Foreign minister Phil Goff
will join us to discuss the situation in the Solomons and
why our presence there is necessary.
Jeremy
'Newsboy' Wells will be along to round out the sporting
week.
And we'll wrap things up with the 'Unitec
school of performing arts' film review care of Ant
Timpson.
Aucklanders can tune in at 95 on
the FM dial.
