TVNZ cuts: Fair Go moved to digital platform, some jobs spared

There's a bright spot among major cuts at TVNZ.

The state broadcaster has confirmed it's axing news and current affairs shows, Midday, Tonight and Fair Go.

But it is proposing Fair Go's brand will continue on its digital platforms, with four new roles created.

E Tu negotiations specialist, Michael Wood, says it is an improvement on the initial proposal.

"I think some of the clear support from New Zealanders around this issue has contributed to that."

Meetings are being held tomorrow discussing the future of current affairs show, Sunday.
