Paul Goldsmith: Broadcasting Minister weighs in on the BSA's future

Broadcasting Minister Paul Goldsmith has revealed he's mulling over changes to the Broadcasting Standards Authority. 

Set up in 1989, the Authority has regulatory powers over traditional broadcasters - but today ruled it can consider complaints against online broadcasters too. 

NZ First's Winston Peters has labelled the move 'fascist behaviour' and Goldsmith says he's working on a response. 

"The legislation is out of date, there's no question about that...it relates to a world where you just had broadcasting TV and broadcasting radio, so there was a situation built up around that. Now, of course, the world's moved on."
