Veitch Not Fronting TVNZ's Olympic Coverage
Sports presenter Tony Veitch will not be fronting Television New Zealand's coverage of the Beijing Olympics, Chief Executive Rick Ellis said today.
"The company is still progressing through a process with Mr Veitch and his legal representatives," Mr Ellis said.
"Staff and equipment are already on their way to the games so for logistical reasons while we await the outcome of the process we are in we have made the call to pull his accreditation.
"Mr Veitch will continue to be off air for other TVNZ programmes."
