The captain of the Rena says sorry, for what that's worth. Quade Cooper spits the dummy, another Dotcom chat on the accountability of the Prime Minister, another chat about the demise of Close-Up and the contention of TVNZ's Ross Dagan that "…traditional current affairs formats are losing favour with audiences". Is this true or not?
