Ten years of TVNZ Good Sorts

From Afternoons, 1:25 pm on 17 April 2019

Ten years ago, from the comfort of his Taranaki news bureau / garage, TVNZ reporter Haydn Jones hit on a novel idea: to tell positive stories of ordinary New Zealanders doing extraordinary things.

The idea morphed into a regular slot on One News called Good Sorts - and this Sunday, a special edition will air at 7pm celebrating its 10 year anniversary.

Haydn talks to Wallace about the zenith of the idea, how he finds people, and the benefits of positivity in the relentless world of news.
