Abstract
- Reporting on the weather may seem at first glance to be a very light story, but it can actually be a serious reflection of how we see ourselves and our changing perception of the world. In 1996, the author embarked on a light-hearted survey of 23 daily papers to find what New Zealand news-papers’ weather reports said about their attitudes to the world. In the middle of the 2020 COVID lockdown he reran the survey to see what had changed. © 2021, Pacific Media Centre, Auckland University of Technology. All rights reserved.
