Drawing on expert contributions from around the UK, this collection
brings together a series of insights into the contemporary local
and community news media landscape in the UK. Offering an analysis
of the ongoing 'crisis' in the provision of local news, exacerbated
by the COVID-19 pandemic, the book provides a critical space for
practitioners and scholars to reflect on emerging models for
economically sustainable, participatory local news services. It
showcases new scholarly analyses of local news provision and
community news practices, giving voice to the experiences of
practitioners from across the local news ecology. In a set of
diverse contributing chapters, campaigners and practitioners map
out the period of recent rapid change for local news, questioning
contemporary government initiatives and highlighting the advent of
diverse, entrepreneurial reactions to the spaces created by a
decline in local mainstream news services. This book is a timely
examination of what we can learn from the variety of approaches
being taken across the local media landscape in the commercial,
subsidised and non-profit sector, shining new light on how
practices that place the engagement of citizens at their centre
might be propagated within this policy and funding landscape.
Reappraising Local and Community News in the UK is a valuable
resource for students and scholars interested in local news and
journalism, as well as for anyone interested in the evolving local
media landscape in the UK.
