Jackson leaving RadioLive
RadioLIVE Network Director Cliff Joiner said:
It is with sadness I can confirm host Willie Jackson is leaving our team. With the exciting news that Willie is standing for Parliament, we unfortunately are farewelling him from the airwaves. Willie has been a key member of our lineup since 2005, constantly providing entertaining and informative issues-driven talk radio. I'd like to thank Willie publicly for his hard work and determination in providing one of the best current affairs radio shows in the country.
Mediaworks CEO – Radio Wendy Palmer said:
"We have been fortunate to have had someone of Willie's mana play such a prominent role on our airwaves. As a representative of his community, as a business leader and as a leading Maori broadcaster, Willie has balanced an extraordinarily busy life over recent years. We could always count on Willie being frank and forthright on-air and always authentic – the true measure of a great broadcaster. All of us at MediaWorks wish him well as he pursues a long held desire to return to politics."
