Hostess away the mostest
by John Drinnan
Could National Radio Nine to Noon
host Linda Clark have known there was a terrible broadcasting standards
finding coming when she took another long holiday off air. Her latest
two-week break coincided with the Broadcasting Standards Authority showing
"deep concern about a serious breach of the rights for Peter Ellis in a
"sympathetic" interview with his accusers in August last year.
Radio New Zealand
has been told to pay fines and costs and print corrections in metro
newspapers around the country. It is considering appealing the decision. This
past week her role has been filled by Maggie Barry and speculation is rife
the former gardening guru could end up permanently tilling the soil at RNZ.
Perhaps a bad time to go on holiday after all.
