08.01.2022 Ray Martin is the face of a campaign to protect local news. Among commercial media, regional newspaper companies, TV, and radio are some of Australia's smallest. We are actively engaged in regional communities. Our journalists and photographers live in their local communities and report on news events that metropolitan and international competitors don't consider newsworthy. Importantly in an increasingly polarised landscape, regional media provides unbiased information to its audiences.

03.01.2022 "As a storyteller, newspapers and television, honestly, give a town soul. "They allow not just politicians and mayors and businessmen and women to have an identity, but they give ordinary people an identity. A lady who turns 100, someone who has worked 40 years in a women's shelter or done volunteer work for 40 years. We recognise, thank them and acknowledge them. ... You take those away and no longer do we recognise, not just politicians, but also people who do good things."
