New Zealand Listener

New Zealand Listener

The New Zealand Listener is a weekly magazine that focuses on the political, cultural, and literary aspects of life in New Zealand. It explores a range of subjects, such as current news, politics, social matters, health, technology, arts, food, culture, and entertainment. In April 2020, The Listener was shut down by Bauer Media Group due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in New Zealand. Later, in June 2020, Mercury Capital took over the magazine when it acquired Bauer Media's previous assets in Australia and New Zealand, which were then renamed Are Media.
