NZ Herald News

As a kiwi living overseas I have always enjoyed being able to read my daily NZ herald online. What a shame that is no longer the case. Dispute the lower cost of producing an online paper and the amount of advertising being paid to the NZ herald, now you have to pay( yes I know for a while already). I have tried for a while now to just try to read around the premium content but now it’s to much as more and more becomes premium. I switch to other NZ e-editions to catch on home now, all for free. BBC, CNN etc are all free... as are so many others...

Now I only have a black screen with the NZ herald sign and no access to the articles. Is this update working - no!

The app keeps on crashing every few minutes. It's been like this for 3-4 days. Please fix it.

Your content that you put on line is very good we get your paper delivered but I like on line as well very good thank you and your pop ups when news events happen throughout the day is great and informative. Thanks

I joined the Herald online as I hoped to read articles that were educational and interesting. I was fed up with our local Christchurch Press for its very left wing articles and cartoons - some were insulting! l no was seeking more balance to what I read including proper news reporting and not the personal opinions of journos!! I am a middle of the road reader who hates extremism and radical views that divide people. I was, therefore, very disappointed to read your weekend Editorial criticising the current government for cancelling the separate Maori health authority, giving local councils and ratepayers the opportunity to democratically decide on Maori Wards, the change to the law regarding part Maori children to be fostered by a caring family other than part Maori and the possibility of a debate about the treaty principles. I consider this article to be the opinion of a radical journalist with no common sense. Apart from anything else, this country is too poor to operate two health authorities. If I was part Maori, I would feel embarrassed at the way they are being depicted - hopeless and helpless! Democracy is working in the respect that there is a higher proportion of part Maori in local and central government than they represent overall. Doesn’t that tell you something? Is it possible for you to write truthful facts and perhaps give some thought to lol how the problems of child abuse, gangs, and prison numbers could be solved? Perhaps your journalists need a shot of common sense? Oh, I forgot, it was dead and buried years ago!!

I read the news online every day - I know I can trust the sources. My go to news site

Supporting Hobson’s Pledges misinformation was a huge own goal.

The Herald has managed to stay reasonably middle of the road with its articles and opinions, unlike stuff which is firmly left/woke and moving further to the left. It was then very disappointing to see the Heralds reaction to the Hobsons choice ad, and its refusal to run anymore. I have nothing to do with Hobsons choice but do not want to see small minority groups or political agendas influencing another NZ news outlet in any direction . We are rapidly running out of any independent thought in NZ media. Please don’t go the way of stuff

I find it disrespectful that ads are being displayed in this section and particularly the Legacy ad that can’t be deleted ! Thank you for the opportunity to comment. Rod MacNeil

Whilst it’s good to have a broad spectrum of political views in the press, nz herald has taken a big step to the right running prominent ads for the Don Brash’s extreme right party. It’s not really a source of reliable news anymore.
