The broadcast starts with an unreserved apology to the editor of Salient, the student journal of Victoria University, Wellington, for a previous broadcast where remarks could have been interpreted as the editor had 'falsified the facts' or 'so distorted them' as to form a basis for 'improper comment', which was not the intention. The rest of the programme is on; details of evidence given in camera on the Broadcasting Authority Bill; Local Body elections and how the papers had the task of trying to make an dreary election sound interesting.

A weekly review of the press in New Zealand from the New Zealand Broadcasting Corporation (NZBC). Theme is Miles Davis, Milestones
