  • The NZ Media Council has upheld a complaint against a RNZ story on accuracy.

The Media Council upheld a complaint against an article published by the New Zealand Herald about a proposed ban on in-game loot boxes, finding that the article breached principles of accuracy, fairness, and balance. The complaint, lodged by a reader, argued that the article misrepresented the views of the academics cited and failed to provide a balanced perspective on the issue. The Media Council agreed, noting that the article did not adequately represent the academics' full views and lacked sufficient context and opposing viewpoints. The council emphasized the importance of accurate and balanced reporting, especially on complex issues like gaming and gambling, and recommended that the Herald take steps to improve its coverage of such topics in the future.
