Driven by the strength of its agenda-setting content, The New Zealand Listener publication is the country's best-selling current affairs magazine with a per capita circulation higher than Time, the New Yorker and the Spectator. The gold standard for any magazine, in the era of unlimited free online content, is whether readers value the journalism enough to seek it out and pay for it. The New Zealand Listener readers do that week after week.
Circulation: 50,000 / Readership: 231,000 / Subscriber base: 27,736
