Are newsrooms really embracing hybrid work? This is the question at the heart of 'Changing Newsrooms', our annual report by @fedecherubini on the many challenges facing news leaders worldwide
The report is based on a survey of a strategic sample of 136 senior media managers from 39 countries. Here are the key findings:

2️⃣ How are newsrooms embracing hybrid work?
49% of our respondents work at organisations where staff are required to be in the office for a minimum number of days. 29% said they follow a more voluntary approach. Only 5% require most people to work from home most of the time
"Before the invasion began, our newspaper had 1m readers a day and 26m unique users per month. We launched a reader revenue model right before the pandemic in 2020," says @SMusaieva from @ukrpravda_news twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

"We relocated part of our team to Western Ukraine. Many didn't understand this back then. But 2 of the editors who left were from Bucha. The father of them was killed in Bucha by Russians," says @SMusaieva from @ukrpravda_news twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…
