About us

New Zealand's news, in plain English. Fast, fair and to the point.

The Daily Kiwi picks the stories that matter to New Zealanders through the day and explains them in a few short paragraphs: what happened, why it matters and what happens next.

We are non-partisan. When a story puts a person or organisation under scrutiny, we include their response. Every story names and links to the original reporting, so you can always read more at the source.

Each story ends with a question, because the best part of the news is the conversation it starts. Join it on our Facebook page.
