Print too often sets the broadcast agenda, even though it is wedded so firmly to the Tories politically and to corporate interests more generally.

Just because it's on the front page of The Sun or the Mail doesn't automatically make it news. #ChangeTheMedia
We must break the stranglehold of elite power and billionaire domination over large parts of our media.

Just three companies control 71% of national newspaper circulation and 5 companies control 81% of local newspaper circulation.
For all the worry about new forms of fake news, most people think our newspapers churn out fake news day in, day out.

It’s hardly a surprise in the last 4 years one political earthquake after another has been missed by most of our media.
One of the more radical and interesting possible ways to limit the power of unaccountable media barons is to give journalists the power to elect editors and have seats on boards for workers and consumers when a title or programme gets particularly large and influential.
