☆ Radio New Zealand investigates ‘inappropriate editing’ of Ukraine war stories
  + stars: | 2023-06-12 | by ( ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
Fourteen of the stories had been supplied by Reuters and one came from Britain’s BBC, the links to the stories show. RNZ said in a statement it was continuing a detailed audit and analysis of all stories that could have been inappropriately edited. “Reuters has addressed the issue with RNZ, which has initiated an investigation,” a spokesperson for Reuters said. The issue became public after changes were made to a June 8 Reuters story about the use of the word “war” in Russia. They have also accused Russia of using false allegations of suppression of ethnic Russians to justify pro-Moscow separatist groups declaring independence in eastern Ukraine.

☆ New Zealand's national broadcaster probes 'inappropriate' editing of Ukraine war stories

The corrections RNZ added to the stories indicated the editing had changed the original stories to present pro-Russian interpretations of some events in Ukraine as fact. The broadcaster said Friday that it had become aware of the issue without providing further specifics and started an "immediate investigation". The story was edited on RNZ's website to read that in 2014 "a pro-Russian elected government was toppled during Ukraine's violent Maidan colour revolution". The piece then inaccurately claimed that "Russia annexed Crimea after a referendum, as the new pro-Western government suppressed ethnic Russians in eastern and southern Ukraine".

☆ New Zealand Plans to Make Facebook, Google Pay for News
  + stars: | 2022-12-05 | by ( Mike Cherney | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
New Zealand has proposed a law that would seek to make online platforms pay news publishers for content. New Zealand said it would seek to require online platforms like Alphabet Inc.’s Google and Facebook owner Meta Platforms Inc. to pay news publishers for content, becoming the latest country to wade into a worldwide debate about whether tech giants unfairly benefit from news shared on their platforms. New Zealand’s proposal will be based on a similar law in Australia and introduced legislation in Canada and will be designed to act as an incentive for digital platforms to reach voluntary deals with local news outlets, according to a statement from New Zealand Broadcasting Minister Willie Jackson.
☆ New Zealand plans law to require Facebook, Google to pay for news
  + stars: | 2022-12-04 | by ( Lucy Craymer | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
WELLINGTON, Dec 5 (Reuters) - The New Zealand government said it will introduce a law that will require big online digital companies such as Alphabet Inc's (GOOGL.O) Google and Meta Platforms Inc (META.O) to pay New Zealand media companies for the local news content that appears on their feeds. "New Zealand news media, particularly small regional and community newspapers, are struggling to remain financially viable as more advertising moves online," Jackson said. "It is critical that those benefiting from their news content actually pay for it." The new legislation will go to a vote in parliament where the governing Labour Party's majority is expected to pass it. Australia introduced a law in 2021 that gave the government power to make internet companies negotiate content supply deals with media outlets.
