Imagine Wales. And when you've done that – pictured it, heard it, enjoyed it, read about it, celebrated it – try to think of our country without song, the spoken word on stage and screen, without poetry and novels, and dance and sculptures and ceramics and paintings and images, and all of the living traditions that are making our contemporary culture so potentially dynamic. In raw fact, as well as in our imagination, there’s no human Wales without Art, just as there’s no Heritage to pass on generation by generation without Creativity. Much the same could be said about our Media. The Arts Council of Wales and the Media 2. The Arts Council of Wales is the country’s funding and development agency for the arts. We are a Welsh Government Sponsored Body and a charitably constituted organisation. We also have a relationship with the UK Government’s Department for Culture, Media and Sport because we distribute funding from the National Lottery. 3. Our relationship with the Media in Wales has many facets: as a distributor of public funds our activities are often the focus of media scrutiny as a campaigning charity we try to persuade the media to do more to promote the profile of the arts in Wales as an investor of funds into the cultural sector we are contributing to the development of the wider creative industries in Wales (of which the media are a key part) However, we are also concerned with wider cultural issues – creativity, identity and diversity – fertile territory within which the media in Wales operate.

This represents the first time harm has been measured on a national level and is to be the subject of a major four year research study.

  • Dr Andy Williams
    Media 01 Task and Finish Group on the future outlook for the media in Wales Response from Dr Andy Williams Stop Press? The Crisis in Welsh Newspapers, and What to Do About It Dr Andy Williams Cardiff University School of Journalism, Media, and Cultural Studies In this extended essay I look at the political economy of the press in South Wales, and argue that as the subsidy provided to news by commercial advertising diminishes, serious public funding for a new generation of non-profit news outlets may be the only way to salvage public interest journalism at our local and regional papers There are a number of reasons for the crisis in our press industry. Newspapers have traditionally made their money in two ways: by selling news to us, and selling us to advertisers. But advertisers are currently leaving newspapers in droves. Quite understandably they no longer find subsidising our news to be profitable, and are migrating to other more lucrative markets (online search engines, social networks, classified ad websites). At the same time, we as readers no longer feel inclined to pay upfront for news. The papers all put it online for free, why would we? There is also the problem that decades of staff cuts have left journalism severely diminished in quality and independence. Perhaps the news just isn’t worth what it used to be. Many critics leave the diagnosis of the problem at that, blaming inevitable and unavoidable changes in the market since the rise of the internet. But there is another cause to this crisis, which can be located firmly in corporate management strategies, and the choices we have taken as societies about who owns newspapers, and how that ownership should be regulated.

  • 7 Shocking Local News Industry Trends Which Should Terrify You
    Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru / National Assembly for Wales Pwyllgor Diwylliant, y Gymraeg a Chyfathrebu / The Culture, Welsh Language and Communications Committee Newyddiaduraeth Newyddion yng Nghymru / News Journalism in Wales CWLC(5) NJW10 Ymateb gan Dr. Andy Williams, Prifysgol Caerdydd / Evidence from Dr. Andy Williams, Cardiff University 7 shocking local news industry trends which should terrify you. The withdrawal of established journalism from Welsh communities and its effects on public interest reporting. In the first of two essays about local news in Wales, I draw on Welsh, UK, and international research, published company accounts, trade press coverage, and first-hand testimony about changes to the economics, journalistic practices, and editorial priorities of established local media. With specific reference to the case study of Media Wales (and its parent company Trinity Mirror) I provide an evidence-based and critical analysis which charts both the steady withdrawal of established local journalism from Welsh communities and the effects of this retreat on the provision of accurate and independent local news in the public interest. A second essay, also submitted as evidence to this committee, explores recent research about the civic and democratic value of a new generation of (mainly online) community news producers. Local newspapers are in serious (and possibly terminal) decline In 1985 Franklin found 1,687 local newspapers in the UK (including Sunday and free titles); by 2005 this had fallen by almost a quarter to 1,286 (Franklin 2006b). By 2015 the figure stood at 1,100, a 35% drop over 30 years, with a quarter of those lost being paid-for newspapers (Ramsay and Moore 2016).
