Who’d buy it?

The Taxpayers’ Union has a petition telling the government to sell TVNZ:

TVNZ faces a projected financial loss of up to $33 million this fiscal year, more than double its initial estimate.

TVNZ have shown to be incapable of delivering Kiwis with balanced news reporting. It’s now gotten to a point where most New Zealanders don’t even feel they can trust the news from the very state broadcaster that’s primary purpose is to represent them.

Just this week, 1News had three shocking incidents of framing that clearly exemplified this bias against the Government in favour of the opposition.

We say enough is enough. Its about time our biased state broadcaster was stripped of its funding and sold off while it’s still worth something.

It’s about time TVNZ was stripped of taxpayer support and sold off before it’s too late.

I agree with the sentiment but is it still worth anything and even if it is who’d buy it?

But it’s worth a try.
