Today FM: Inside the chaos of the station's final hours

The Front Page - A podcast by NZ Herald

While we’re on our summer break, we’re taking a look back at some of the biggest news stories and top rated episodes from the podcast this year.   In a year of big changes for New Zealand’s media industry, one moment stood out from the rest.  Talk radio station Today FM came to a dramatic, expletive-laden end back in March. After only a year on air, Mediaworks made the shock decision to close it – sparking an on-air outburst by Today FM’s top talent.  While the station had struggled to chip away at Newstalk ZB’s audience, the sudden closure stunned the country and raised some stark questions about the future of the media industry.  The day it happened, the Media Insider himself Shayne Currie joined us to react to the news, and today we’ll revisit our immediate reaction to one of the most stunning moments of broadcasting Aotearoa has ever seen.   New episodes return January 15th.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
