In the latest blow to the media industry, TVNZ is looking to cut up to 68 jobs - or nine percent of its staff.
RNZ understands Re: News, Fair Go and Sunday are likely to be affected, with meetings scheduled this morning for staff from those divisions.
A hui with all TVNZ news and current affairs employees is also expected to be held on Friday.
This comes after Newshub announced last week that it would axe its entire news operation.
Former journalist with both TVNZ and Newshub Amanda Millar spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
