What is with the huge influx of Kiwis into Aussie media of late, especially the radio?
I hardly listen to the radio or watch TV, but every time I do, I hear some idiot saying "phone un noiw for your chince to wun a bug prize!"
...or something like that. :toothless
Why would a commercial radio station bother to hire a New Zealander with a stupid accent, surely there are hundreds of Australians who would want the job??? |

Advertising regulations that required a certain percentage of media to be produced in Australia where relaxed some time ago.
| quote: | Australian produced advertisements
5. A licensee must ensure that at least 80% of the total advertising time (other than the time occupied by exempt advertisements) broadcast in a year by the licensee, between the hours of 6.00 am and midnight, is occupied by Australian produced advertisements. |

Course they pay for NZ ads, they're substantially cheaper than making them in Australia. |

No, I'm talking about Kiwi radio hosts and DJs, as well as on TV at times!
Outrage. :mad:
:p
p.s You can tell ads made in NZ, even when they have Aussie voice-overs! Kiwis just have that "daggy" look to them... |

Like anyone else that stumbles into the country with a work visa and qualifications they find work fairly quickly. If you hadn't noticed, there is a fair bit of a shortage at the moment finding employees.
(And the NooZoolund dollar is worth bugger all!) |
