TVNZ6 & TVNZ7

Wow we are an imaginative bunch in NZ aren't we?

Heres what they say about content:

"TVNZ's general manager for digital services, Eric Kearley, said TVNZ 6
would start with children's programming in the morning, and continue with
"safe family viewing" until 8.30pm. After that, more challenging fare on
arts and drama would screen.

TVNZ 7 would be a broad-based factual channel including news, sports,
documentaries and current affairs. It is understood to have 15-minute new=
s
bulletins running each hour on the hour, but Kearley said it would not be
a rolling news channel like CNN"
