Who Are We

No, this is not some warped TVNZ attempt to generate increased viewers for TVNZ 7.

This campaign has been established by and for TVNZ 7 viewers. None of us work on any programmes that appear on the channel (though, to be honest, we'd like to) nor do we work for TVNZ.

Some of us do work in television and as such we know people who know people who work at TVNZ 7. But hey, NZ’s a small country and there’s only 2 degrees of separation anyway. But we do feel the financial effects of shutting down more local production and the fact that the television industry has shrunk substantially in the last couple of years is another reason to keep TVNZ 7 going. But the main reason is the public good created by an intelligent public broadcasting channel.

This site is administered by Myles Thomas and Chris Parry with the generous help of others including all of those people who contribute their petition signatures and comments.
