TVNZ fronting an election year show with a Labour candidate

Missed announcement late last year:

Rotorua's Tamati Coffey says he gets approached constantly with ideas for new shows, but he leapt at the chance to tackle an issue close to his heart.

Mr Coffey, co-owner of Ponsonby Rd Lounge Bar, is set to host a new TVNZ1 show Moving Out which is planned to screen mid next year.

The show is being produced by Faultline Films' Amanda Jones who said the show would follow Kiwi families as they chose to move from Auckland's rat race to the provinces.

Incredible. They hire someone who is an active candidate to front a show that will air just before the election. Another reason to sell .
