One of These Digital Platforms Is Not like the Other

The BFD is 95% powered by member dollars and the remaining 5% comes from ad revenue. The Spinoff doesn’t have genuine subscriptions because all their content is free to read. Take a look at the true source of their funding. Hint, it is not their readership. Last year The

Raise Your Glasses to the BFD

Last year Stuff reported on the extent of media bludging from government troughs. It is eye-watering just how much taxpayer coin some media organisations have availed themselves of. Media companies large and small claimed funding from the Government’s media package last year. In April 2020, Broadcasting, Communications and Media

Comparing Apples with Apples: The Spinoff and The BFD

The Spinoff has a similar-sized audience to The BFD but the similarities end there. The BFD is funded 95% by our 1600+ members and 5% by our advertising revenue.

Govt Paid NZ Media for Puff Pieces

Last year New Zealand hosted the APEC online conference. Unbelievably for a wholly online conference, it still came with a price tag of $76 million dollars. We can at least tell you where $93,000 of that $76 Million dollars went. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs paid  Stuff and the
