Your news on tvCentral
Waikato and Bay of Plenty regional television station tvCentral has recently received a funding contract from NZonAir to assist with the production and broadcast of its very first news show.
The show ‘Central News’ will air at 5pm and 9pm five days a week, showcasing a daily news and weather report followed by interviews featuring the latest in finance, motoring, politics, farming, sport and events from in and around the Waikato and Bay of Plenty.
A news show has been on the agenda since the tvCentral, formerly known as FamilyTV, broadcast began in 2002 and to finally see it realised is a massive achievement.
Central News is in the early production phase and producers Rexine Hawes and Janene Forlong are currently sourcing news and events and are inviting people to send in their media releases or just drop them an email. A number of the feature stories will be filmed live in the Matamata based studio with a percentage filmed on-location.
You can contact the Central News team at news@tvcentral.co.nz or at the studio on (07) 8885030.
