About Newswire

Newswire is a focused news feed covering New Zealand News. We curate releases from a wide range of sources and present them without the clutter: no pop-ups, no tracking scripts, no dark patterns — just the stories.

What we cover

Our focus is news relevant to readers in and about Aotearoa New Zealand, including politics, business, climate, science, culture, and sport. We do not write original articles; we gather public releases, tag, and present the best of what is already out there. We also monitor the existing media outlets with a brief daily summary of what they are talking about.

How it works

Incoming releases are classified and tagged automatically and then reviewed before being made public. Every article identifies it's source. If you produce or publish news and would like to be included — or excluded — please get in touch via the contact page.

The team

Newswire is an independent project by Pete Fowler and Andrew McMillan.
