Sky News Australia is gearing up to launch “a new short-form news program” titled NZ Edition. Jack Nyhof, a correspondent at Sky News New Zealand, is booked to host.

The announcement:

Tomorrow Sky News Australia will premiere a new short-form news program – NZ Edition – hosted by Sky News New Zealand correspondent, Jack Nyhof.

NZ Edition will broadcast from the Sky News Australia studio in Parliament House, Wellington, each Saturday at 3:45pm AEST, and will unpack the top New Zealand headlines and provide audiences with a preview of the key issues on the political agenda for the week ahead.

Featured in the premiere episode airing Saturday 4 May, Prime Minister of New Zealand Christopher Luxon, will sit down with Nyhof to discuss the most pressing issues impacting the nation, including New Zealand’s foreign policy and place in the world, its relationships with Australia and China, plus the Government’s plan for cost-of-living relief.

Jack Nyhof, New Zealand correspondent for Sky News Australia said: “New Zealand is an incredible country with stories that impact and interest both Kiwi and Australian audiences alike.

“NZ Edition will be a weekly deep dive on the political, economic and social issues that are shaping life in New Zealand – including cost-of-living, crime and Māori policies. Sky News has a long history of reporting on and from New Zealand, and I’m excited to continue that legacy here from our Wellington Bureau and across the country.”
