New Zealand Media and Entertainment (abbreviated NZME and stylized as NZME.) is a New Zealand newspaper, radio, outdoor advertising and digital media business. It was launched in 2014 as the formal merger of the New Zealand division of APN News & Media and The Radio Network, part of the Australian Radio Network. It operates 32 newspapers, 8 radio networks and several websites in twenty-five markets across the country, and reaches over 3 million people.

NZME brands include flagship national newspaper New Zealand Herald, regional newspapers Bay of Plenty Times, Rotorua Daily Post and Northern Advocate and deals website GrabOne. Its radio division operates radio networks Newstalk ZB, The Hits, ZM, Radio Sport, Radio Hauraki, Flava, Coast and Mix on radio frequencies around the country and through the iHeartRadio digital listening website and mobile app.

The launch of the business fueled speculation APN News and Media could be planning to fully separate its New Zealand operations, or issue an initial public offering for up to 60 percent of its New Zealand assets on the NZX. Fairfax Media declined to confirm speculation in the Australian Financial Review that it could buy some or all of those assets.
