Broadcasting Minister Melissa Lee says there won't be a handout for embattled media network Newshub after yesterday's shock announcement it will shut down at the end of June.
The Minister, who has come under heavy criticism for not fronting for interviews, says she has not been sitting idle.
Melissa Lee said whilst she'd speak to stakeholders about relief, there would be nothing from government coffers.
As Anastasia Hedge reports, that news has the nation talking not just about who watches the news but also its future.
