Talley's defamation case against TVNZ has failed.
In 2023 TVNZ aired news stories using whistle-blowers who alleged safety failures in Talley's fish factories. Talley's case belly-flopped because they could not prove any pecuniary loss. However...
"Justice Jagose said that if Talley’s had proven the publication of the 3 July 2021 broadcast had caused a pecuniary loss, he would have upheld TVNZ’s defence of responsible communication on a matter of public interest, to dismiss Talley’s proceeding."
