Media commentator Andrew Holden

Is it the turning of the tide for how digital companies treat newsrooms?. Google will pay $1 billion to news publishers around the world over the next three years and let them make more editorial decisions about how their content appears on its products. Also a new content agreement will give NZ Herald premium subscribers access to some magazine titles. Andrew Holden is a journalist for more than 30 years including five as Editor of The Press (in Christchurch) and four as Editor-in-Chief of The Age in Melbourne.
