Future of Media Commission

Editor of The Anglo-Celt Linda O’Reilly gave a presentation on behalf of Local Ireland to the Future of Media Commission on March 19 on the theme of What can independent media do to evolve toward long-term sustainable models that avoid or reduce dependency on public funding? Does the answer lie in innovation investment, advertising, subscription models or elsewhere?

Linda detailed the valuable contribution local news publishers make to their communities in print and online and outlined the significant measures needed to support our businesses and facilitate digital transformation going forward.
