Summary The Jesus Seminar movement, which denies the literal resurrection of Christ, was the subject of an item on Holmes broadcast on TV One beginning at 7. 00 pm on Good Friday, 10 April 1998. Mr Fox complained to Television New Zealand Limited, the broadcaster, that the item was biased and unbalanced in failing to interview a person of equal academic standing to Dr Veitch, who had been interviewed on behalf of the movement.

The pastor interviewed had an extensive background in theological research, TVNZ wrote, and he provided the item’s balance....

The item was broadcast on TV One on 21 April 1999 commencing at 7. 30pm....
