Sidani, on behalf of the Wellington Palestine Group, and Television New Zealand Ltd - 1998-046
1998-046

Summary "Aleppo to Aqaba" was the title of the episode of Great Train Journeys broadcast on TV One at 8. 30pm on 20 January 1998. On behalf of the Wellington Palestine Group, A Sidani complained to the broadcaster, Television New Zealand Ltd, that the programme breached the standards relating to accuracy and balance by including a map which showed Israel as including the Occupied Territories. In response, TVNZ pointed out that Israel was named in only one of the three maps shown. However, it acknowledged that in each map the boundary of Israel did not allow for the Occupied Territories and, accordingly, TVNZ upheld the complaint about inaccuracy. Although the programme was already dated and unlikely to be rescreened, TVNZ said it had made arrangements for the matter to be tagged for attention should it be rescreened....

1999-205–206

SummaryEpisodes 12 and 13 of the series Havoc and Newsboy’s Sell-Out Tour were broadcast on TV2 on consecutive Tuesday evenings on 17 and 24 August 1999 beginning at 10. 00pm. Simon Boyce complained to Television New Zealand Ltd, the broadcaster, that what he called gratuitous swearing on the programme, which included the use of the word "fuck", breached the good taste standard. TVNZ responded that in the context of a late evening broadcast and the fact that the programmes were classified as AO, it did not consider that the language used posed a threat to the standard. It also suggested that the approach taken by Mikey Havoc and Jeremy Wells (Newsboy) was by now sufficiently well-established for the language to have come as no surprise to viewers....

Corrin and Television New Zealand Ltd - 1998-092
1998-092

Summary An Our World programme about wetas, broadcast on TV One between 6. 30 – 7. 30pm on 21 June 1998, included a reference to the "Auckland Museum" in the credits. On behalf of the Auckland War Memorial Museum Public Petition Campaign Group, Mr Corrin complained to Television New Zealand Ltd that it was factually incorrect to describe the Auckland War Memorial Museum as the "Auckland Museum". On the basis that the Broadcasting Standards Authority had accepted in an earlier decision that a brief reference to the "Auckland Museum" did not contravene the standards, TVNZ declined to uphold the complaint. Dissatisfied with decision, Mr Corrin referred the Group’s complaint to the Broadcasting Standards Authority under s. 8(1)(a) of the Broadcasting Act 1989. For the reasons below, the Authority declines to determine the complaint....
