Ten years of Māori Television

Victoria University Associate Professor in media studies Jo Smith has published a new book looking at the history of Maori Television. The Book titled "Maori Television: The First Ten Years" shines a light on the complex dynamics underpinning state-funded Maori media. In the process it all offers five frameworks to help understand Maori Television as an organisation and how it operates within a wider non-Maori context. Reporter Sam Smith spoke to Smith about the book and Maori Television's history.
