Investigation launched into pro-Russia bias in Ukraine coverage.

Radio New Zealand is conducting an internal investigation after an employee edited wire reporting on the Ukraine war to add Russia-friendly phrasing. RNZ published at least four articles attributed to the Reuters wire service that had been edited to add pro-Kremlin phrasing. The RNZ chief executive, Paul Thompson, said the inappropriate editing of the stories to reflect a pro-Moscow perspective was deeply concerning and would be addressed accordingly.
