AUCKLAND, Today: Media commentator Graham Medcalf is the latest adept to add a voice to the growing clamour from critics of the MediaWorks decision to close Radio Live (presented as a “merger” with Magic).
“MediaWorks’ announcement that RadioLive will be merged with the Magic network in early 2019, with the new entity to be called Magic Talk, has been met by stunned disbelief,” Medcalf writes in Stop Press.
“The former head of Radio Live, Mitch Harris, didn’t hold back when on his late night show he ranted about television people who didn’t know anything about radio.
“So, the question arises, do MediaWorks bosses know what they are doing?”
