Claim your profileHey, I’m Paddy - a journalist that is focussed on positive news and solutions. I’ve spent over 25 years reporting on issues of national and international significance - covering stories across New Zealand and around the world in places like Afghanistan, Iraq, on the US campaign trail and at the Queen’s funeral. I am currently putting out positive news on www.stuff.co.nz, branded “TFN” (The F#$%ing News). I am author of the book “This Is The F#$%ing News” about my life. I speak publicly with my message of “Connection-Optimism-Purpose-Change”.I’m a documentary-maker, having made 10 docos in the “Patrick Gower: On…” series.And I am also the host of current affairs show "Paddy Gower has Issues" (returning in 2025!) Please message me here on LinkedIn! I always get back to people.
