ThreeNews
ThreeNews is a New Zealand television news bulletin produced by Stuff, airing on channel Three since 6 July 2024. It is the successor to Newshub Live at 6pm, which ended the day prior.
ThreeNews is broadcast for 60 minutes on weekdays and 30 minutes on weekends. Notable presenters include weeknight news presenter Samantha Hayes, weekend news presenter Laura Tupou, sports presenter Ollie Ritchie and weather presenter Heather Keats.
The recession of the 2020s and a decline in advertising revenue caused a drop in Newshub's revenue. Consequently, several Newshub bulletins and the current affairs programme The Project had to be shut down. After making a proposal in February 2024, Warner Bros. Discovery New Zealand decided in April that it would close its news division, Newshub, which would result in around 200 job losses.
In April 2024, Stuff announced that they will replace Newshub's spot for the 6 pm news bulletin on Three. The name ThreeNews was unveiled the following month, which reflects the channel the programme is run on, and is a reference to Newshub’s previous name, 3 News. On 14 April 2024, Warner Bros. Discovery filed a trademark claim for the names ThreeNews and Three News while Stuff filed a trademark with the New Zealand Intellectual Properties Office.
Several of the top journalists from Newshub are employed at ThreeNews, including newsreader Samantha Hayes, Laura Tupou, Ollie Ritchie and Heather Keats. The news bulletin launched on 6 July 2024.
On 26 July, the weather segment of ThreeNews' bulletin was briefly interrupted by "technical difficulties," which Warner Bros Discovery attributed to human error.
In December 2024, ThreeNews was reorganised under the Stuff Digital umbrella, a division that also includes the social media platform Neighbourly and the website stuff.co.nz. In June 2025, online retailer Trade Me acquired a 50 percent stake in Stuff Digital and its assets including ThreeNews.
In late July 2025, Sky confirmed plans to buy Warner Bros. Discovery New Zealand's assets including Three and ThreeNow. Stuff's owner Sinead Boucher and Sky CEO Sophie Moloney confirmed that Sky would honour Stuff's contract with Warner Discovery to produce the ThreeNews evening bulletin.
