The response outlines ways in which collaboration between digital newsrooms and community radio stations can generate efficiencies, particularly in the areas of infrastructure, management and content.
LINA benefits from a parent-company arrangement with the Community Broadcasting Association of Australia (CBAA), a collaboration generating efficiencies between the two industry associations. A significant portion of our work focuses on networking and shared services between news publishers, producing economies of scale across independent organisations. From this perspective, collaboration is a key tenant underpinning LINA’s work and makes sense in any industry with scant resources.
LINA’s response to the review also describes some key projects planned for the upcoming year to support the sustainability of local and independent newsrooms.
