OTHER STORIES ABOUT NORTH & SOUTH

https://publicaddress.net/hardnews/aspie-on/ Russell Brown: This week’s Media7 is close to home for me. We’re looking at the new North & South magazine’s cover story on Asperger’s Syndrome, with the writer, Joanna Wane. Also on the panel, very much “out” Aspie Helen Baxter, and a third person to be confirmed.

https://www.radionz.co.nz/news/national/364369/metro-magazine-founder-dies-at-72 self explanatory

https://www.radionz.co.nz/news/national/368668/nicky-hager-reveals-fresh-allegations-on-nzdf-cover-ups-and-abuse In Mr Hager's 12-page investigation, published in the North & South magazine today, he details how a source revealed that an SAS soldier - known as Corporal B for privacy reasons - was awarded the second-highest military honour despite previously being considered for court-martial action for killing two children in Afghanistan.

https://www.radionz.co.nz/news/national/34887/psychiatric-input-in-article-by-raurimu-killer North & South magazine says an article by a man who shot and killed his father and five other people was written in consultation with his psychiatric care providers

https://sciblogs.co.nz/griffins-gadgets/2015/05/13/carrick-graham-still-gunning-for-public-health-researchers/ Peter Griffin As I’ve written before, one of the most disturbing revelations in Nicky Hager’s book Dirty Politics was the coordinated campaign to smear public health researchers advocating evidence-based interventions to cut obesity and smoking and alcohol-related diseases. Ten months and an election later, has anything changed? Not really, as this month’s North & South magazine reveals. Journalist Peter Newport had to endure “six months of drinking coffee with [Carrick] Graham” to secure an on-the-record interview with the shadowy lobbyist linked last year to some of the most pointed smears published on the Whaleoil blog.


https://sciblogs.co.nz/molecular-matters/2012/06/15/north-south-feature-on-alternative-medicine/ This week North & South magazine take on alternative medicine in thirteen pages of very thorough and well written articles. I can highly recommend it. I won’t repeat everything covered in the articles but very much appreciated the following quotes, originally from the book “Snake Oil and Other Preoccupations” by John Diamond.

https://sciblogs.co.nz/infectious-thoughts/2013/04/16/press-complaints-commission-upholds-homeopaths-complaint/ Siouxsie Wiles article. Tauranga homeopath Clive Stuart has had part of his complaint against an article on homeopathy (Homeopathy – Trick or Treatment?) published in the July 2012 edition of North & South, upheld by the Press Complaints Commission (PCC)*. While the PCC did not agree with his complaint that balance needed to be numerically equivalent (there were quotes from two people critical of homeopathy and one defending) or that his letter to the editor should not have been accompanied by a response from a critic of homeopathy (Dr Shaun Holt), they did uphold his complaint that the article was wrong to say that “homeopathic remedies have failed every randomised, evidence-based scientific study seeking to verify their claims of healing powers”.

https://thespinoff.co.nz/auckland/08-09-2016/shock-media-currently-hosting-worlds-first-non-racist-immigration-debate/ September’s North & South came out a couple of Mondays ago and devoted a large chunk of its feature well to a single issue: immigration. It’s a big deal: unlike its sister publication Metro, North & South isn’t given to regularly dedicating itself to a particular subject, so it’s indicative of a serious depth of feeling within the magazine’s editorial staff. There’s 20 pages, plus the editorial, including essays, a well-reported feature and a lengthy conversation between economist Michael Reddell and the magazine’s editor, Virginia Larson.

https://digitalnz.org/records/36533385/the-ralston-group-20-june-1991 video footage: The Ralston Group was an early 90s TV3 political chat show where politicos and media industry insiders vigorously debated current affairs. In this mid-1991 episode ringmaster Bill Ralston prods RNZ political editor Richard Griffin, broadcaster Leighton Smith, North & South editor Robyn Langwell and lawyer Trevor de Cleene to tell it as they see it. They debate service on Air New Zealand, the reform of Accident Compensation Corporation, the National Party’s broken promise for a Guaranteed Retirement Income, and the vexed issue of personalised car number plates.

https://thespinoff.co.nz/media/16-06-2016/this-article-about-terrible-millennials-is-quite-sexist-and-dumb/ On Monday a new North & South came out, with a story as old as time: ‘what the hell is wrong with millennials’? Two millennials had a read and What They Found Inside Will Shock You.

https://thespinoff.co.nz/the-bulletin/01-04-2019/the-bulletin-submissions-show-tough-euthanasia-fight-ahead/ One of the people in that small group pushing for change is Matt Vickers. His wife Lecretia Seales died in 2015 from a brain tumour. During her final years, she had advocated strongly for euthanasia to become permitted, but was denied the right to make that choice. Mr Vickers wrote recently for North and South, making his case on the idea that terminally ill people should be able to choose their own fate. In opposition to that, many have argued that if the law were changed, many people might feel pressured to make that choice – for example, elderly people who feel like they’re being a burden.


https://thespinoff.co.nz/the-bulletin/20-03-2019/the-bulletin-christchurch-attacks-become-political-football-overseas/ President Erdoğan has long stoked both Islamism and Turkish nationalism for domestic political gain, and it remains to be seen if the Christchurch attacks will become inspirational to radical Islamist groups. That ideology has practically no currency whatsoever among New Zealand’s Muslim community, as this North and South feature shows.


https://thespinoff.co.nz/the-bulletin/01-03-2019/the-bulletin-police-tooling-up-a-sign-of-the-future/ The Armed Offenders Squad, for whom being armed is a core part of their job, undergo extremely rigorous selection, outlined in this North and South feature.

https://thespinoff.co.nz/the-bulletin/21-12-2018/the-best-nz-journalism-of-2018-as-chosen-by-you/ A reader wanted to nominate the whole of North and South magazine, but narrowed it down to one searing piece from Aaron Smale.

Models are another story. "I've often Photoshopped a model to make them look fatter," says Nicholls. One turned up for a shoot looking far more emaciated than the photo on the modelling agency website, she says: "Her arms looked like Belsen victim arms."

Improvements needed for this page

[edit]

I am the editor of North & South magazine and would like to note North & South's contribution to press freedom on the magazine's Wikipedia page. Lange v Atkinson (and the publishers of North & South) was one of the longest-running defamation cases in New Zealand legal history. (In 1995, David Lange took exception to North & South political columnist Joe Atkinson's critique of his premiership.) The defamation case ran for five years; after one High Court hearing, two Court of Appeal hearings and one Privy Council hearing, the argument that the media should have a defence of qualified privilege when reporting on politicians was won. The result was a groundbreaking extension of press freedom; journalists were granted extended scope to observe and criticise current and former parliamentarians as well as those standing for election, as long as the commentary was not reckless or motivated by malice. In 2018, a case taken against Maori Television and reporter Heta Gardiner (Durie v Gardiner) resulted in the recognition of a new defence to the tort of defamation. The Court of Appeal concluded that it was "...time to strike a new balance by recognising the existence of a new defence of public interest communication that is not confined to parliamentarians or political issues, but extends to all matters of significant public concern and which is subject to a responsibility requirement.” The court clarified that the form of qualified privilege recognised in Lange v Atkinson was now effectively subsumed in the new defence of public interest.

Comments:

  • MPA CURRENT AFFAIRS & BUSINESS 2016 Winner: Donna Chisholm - New Zealand / North & South

Judges Comments "We almost came to blows finding a winner in this category because of the quality of the top entries. Donna is a compelling and engaging writer, with excellent networks, who develops strong levels of trust with her interviewees. She covers a wide range of issues of importance that clearly resonate with readers."

  • MPA CURRENT AFFAIRS & BUSINESS 2016 Winner: Virginia Larson - North & South

Judges Comments "Virginia is a thoroughly professional editor and operating at the top of her game. She provides unique and compelling content every month, for a demanding audience, in a market where “scoops” don’t last more than minutes. Her skills at identifying what her audience wants and successfully delivering it, has been reflected in exceptional newsstand results this year. Her repackaging content initiative, “Murder, She Wrote”, delivered significant revenue."

  • MPA CURRENT AFFAIRS & BUSINESS 2015 Winner, Best Journalist: Joanna Wane - North & South

In a keenly contested field filled with star writers, Joanna Wane impressed us as a masterful organiser of complex information and a consummate storyteller.

Bios:

Mike White has been a journalist for 20 years and has reported from many countries, including Afghanistan and Iraq. Since 2003 he has been a staff writer and photographer for North & South. In that time he has won more than 20 Qantas and Canon media awards, has been New Zealand Feature Writer of the Year three times, and received New Zealand's premier journalism award, the Wolfson Fellowship to Cambridge University. He has also twice been the Cathay Pacific New Zealand Travel Writer of the Year. He lives in Wellington but travels extensively throughout New Zealand for North & South.

Joanna Wane started out as a cadet on the Auckland Star in the days of manual typewriters, carbon copies, photographers’ darkrooms and hot-press printing. She still misses some of that. For the past 10 years, she’s been deputy editor at North & South, after working in newspapers and magazines in New Zealand, Australia and the UK, and dipping her toes briefly into TV documentary making before regaining her senses and finding her way into longform journalism.

  • Best Journalist: MPA News & Current Affairs 2013 JOANNA WANE North & South

The deputy editor of North & South magazine, Joanna has written for newspapers and magazines in New Zealand, Australia and the UK. She’s also dabbled in television, writing and co-directing the TVNZ documentary Women in Power, but the rare opportunity to write in-depth, long-form journalism at North & South has been the most challenging and rewarding of her career. A finalist for Feature Writer of the Year (Magazines) in this year’s Canon Media Awards, she is a previous winner of MPA Lifestyle Journalist of the Year.

  • Best Designer: News & Current Affairs 2013 JENNY NICHOLLS North & South

North & South art director Jenny has won eight Canon and MPA awards for best magazine cover (for Metro magazine and North & South), as well as the coveted MPA Supreme Designer of the Year award. She’s judged prestigious photography awards and tutored in design. Jenny is a consummate multi-tasker: as well as designing North & South almost single-handedly every month, she also contributes book and film reviews, a science column and travel stories to the magazine.

  • Best Editor: News & Current Affairs 2013 VIRGINIA LARSON North & South

North & South editor Virginia has a long history with the magazine, having started as a subeditor in 1993 and worked as a staff writer and deputy editor before being appointed editor in 2008. She began her journalism career as a staff writer for the New Zealand Woman’s Weekly, then worked as a feature writer on Cleo in Sydney.

VIRGINIA LARSON North & South JUDGES’ COMMENTS: “Brilliant. The judges feel North & South shone through all the entries. It has come into its own. It is strong, contentious, balanced and informative. Virginia obviously has a strong passion for her team, and the publication and philosophy do not pretend to be anything other than what they say they are.”

NORTH & SOUTH Despite the plethora of opinion-led blogs, free news sites and the so-called ‘shrinking attention span’, North & South’s 2012 retail success (an 11% year-on-year increase and two sell-out issues) shows more readers want to be fully informed on the issues of the day by writers they trust. North & South remains a touchstone of New Zealand life.

These are from North & South "contributors" pages. They are short potted biographies and may be useful. They are not online. They will normally be on the page after the contents page: they are from North & South's own files. Added by North & South staff Tahatai (talk) 02:30, 27 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Mike White (NZ journalist)

[edit]

I'm editor of North & South magazine. I believe the magazine's senior writer-photographer, Mike White, meets notability criteria for a Wikipedia page, having won numerous journalism awards (Qantas/Canon/Voyager awards, MPA awards and Cathay Pacific Travel Writing awards). He is the author of the book "Who Killed Scott Guy?" (Allen & Unwin) and "How to Walk a Dog" (Allen & Unwin, to be published October 2019). Mike won the Wolfson Fellowship, to Cambridge University, in 2014. A former chief reporter of the Marlborough Express, Mike spent time as a freelancer writing from Pakistan and Afghanistan before joining the UN in the Middle East where he had two tours in Iraq. He started with North & South in 2003. Mike covered the Ben Smart and Olivia Hope/Scott Watson case as a reporter on the Marlborough Express from 1998; he revisited the case for North & South in December 2007. In 2014 Scott Watson invited Mike to interview him in prison, having maintained his innocence and kept his silence for 18 years. The Corrections department sought to prevent that meeting. It took more than a year and a hearing in the High Court to overturn that decision. Mike White's story on the interview with Watson in Rolleston Prison was published in North & South in December 2015. In January 2017, Mike covered the first meeting between Scott Watson and Olivia's father, Gerald Hope, also held in Rolleston Prison.

Hello: Mike White is probably (!) the most awarded North & South journalist: arguably he would warrant his own page. Tahatai (talk) 20:59, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
