TVNZ is looking to cut 68 jobs from the business. The company - which at December had 735 full-time employees - recently reported a half-year loss of $16.8 million.
It follows the announced closure of rival Three's news division Newshub.
This all comes as the Fair Digital News Bargaining Bill is debated, something that could force large businesses like Facebook and Google to negotiate to pay for the news they use. The presenter of RNZ's Mediawatch is Colin Peacock.
