It is with a touch of sadness I note the passing of The Listener into the annals of history today at the ripe old age of 80.
What started as a state-owned journal of radio broadcasting, created to replace the privately owned 'Radio Record', became the magazine we all grew up with - It, like NZ broadcasting (fortunately), is no longer in government hands, but today it became another victim of these troubled times - no longer able to survive as its advertisers pulled out, most likely simply trying to protect their own companies from the same fate.
RIP Listener.
