Fair Go...

...is as iconic as "The Listener", which was also supposed to be discontinued. In the course of its history, "Fair Go" has made many enemies, but a much greater number of friends. The program has a reputation and credibility and is a "last resort" for countless Kiwis who find themselves being exploited. This is a bad decision by TV1 and I can't believe they will continue with it. I hope they don't.
No Go Fair Go

A damn shame to cut Fair Go. This show I'm sure, has kept a few honest.
Bad Move

C'mon give us a fair go. As morepork states, it's iconic. It's a part, a much needed part of New Zealand.
