A daily, midday, news package which featured an in depth interview about a current news topic. Viewers could phone in and ask questions of the key interviewee.

  • 1Pornography Auckland strip club magnate Rainton Hastie has caused outrage with his plans to open an Adult X-rated video parlour in Queen Street. Extraordinarily, no one was morally offended by the concept of porn, just the fact that the parlour was to be sited in the midst of Auckland's premier shopping centre. Do New Zealanders want these sorts of video parlours? Who can afford skin flicks at $100 per video? Are they any worse than any other business out to profit from human weaknesses. Discussion and viewer talkback with Rainton Hastie about the increasing demand for access to porn.
