What they say...“Business, because of its nature and substance, is probably the most difficult area in which to excel in television journalism yet you have proven (again) that you have a true mastery of the medium and subject matter.” "Owen Poland brings to his role an ability to delve into complex business stories and make them relevant to a wide audience. Part of his ability derives from his education, and a great deal from his three decades of covering business news in New Zealand and abroad. His ability to cut through commercial gobbledygook and deliver a message that can be widely understood is one of his key journalistic strengths." “Just a quick note to congratulate you on your success at the Qantas Media Awards. I would have to say Owen, that dealings I have had with you were extremely positive and I am delighted that your professionalism, balance and upfront style were acknowledged.” “Owen Poland is New Zealand’s leading television business reporter, with a strong interest in domestic economic issues and an awareness of the role technology and related knowledge industries have to play in the creation of a modern New Zealand export economy.” “Your specific knowledge of how scientists and researchers should best deal with the media added a special dimension to the day’s discussions. I am sure those in the audience will be a lot more confident and proactive in approaching the media thanks to your advice.”
