Another 1-dollar deal, another big shakeup for the New Zealand media industry.

Sky TV has snapped up broadcast network Three and its associated platforms, and will have control of them by August 1st.

It sees the exit of another international player in the local media landscape, with Warner Bros Discovery retreating a year after it closed down Three’s news outfit, Newshub.

So what does this new media merger mean for the industry – and could this change how you watch the All Blacks?

Today on The Front Page, host of The Fold podcast for The Spinoff, Duncan Grieve, is with us to discuss how this shakes things up.
