あらすじ・解説
In this special episode of Talk of the Town, we’re stepping away from our usual local news and community stories to dive into a topic that’s crucial for how we stay informed: the future of local news itself. We’re joined by Claire Stuchbery, Executive Director of the Local and Independent News Association (LINA), to explore how independent and hyperlocal news publishers are stepping up to fill the gaps left by traditional media in communities across Australia.
Claire shares her wealth of experience in media policy and community broadcasting, and explains how LINA is helping small, digital news outlets thrive by providing resources, support, and networking opportunities. We discuss the challenges facing local journalism, the impact of the digital news shift, and why independent journalism is so vital for community connection.
This episode is a bit different from our usual content, but it’s an important conversation about the news sources that keep us connected to our local communities. Tune in to hear how the future of local news is being shaped, and what you can do to support independent journalism where you live, like Echo News!
