Sanctuary NZ leaving AM
Major fallout appears to be looming as of the end of July… as far as what Rhema Media have decided for both their Rhema and Sanctuary brands.
NZME carried out a major re-alignment of its Gold Sport brand, with a pile including 774, 1557 and others dropping away to become Newztalk ZB, from a newly-named iHeartCountry New Zealand network — the ‘music’ format had already changed months ago to country.
How it all settles… the final line-up from Radio New Zealand’s new/singular mast at Henderson/Auckland still hasn’t solidified… remains to be seen.
