The only independent news outlets I know are youtube channels and podcasts. They don't rely on corporate or government money.

They are not unbiased of course and neither are they "professional" (whatever that means).

NZ is too small to foster a robust independent press so we are stuck with foreign owned corporate media or public radio. So far RNZ has managed to remain independent but looks like this government is going to end that.
