  • Glasgow University, 5 March 2014 Introduction
    Media plurality meeting notes: Glasgow University, 5 March 2014 Introduction: aims of AHRC project / Scottish context This is one of 6 seminars looking at policy thinking and policy making around media plurality. This one is designed to focus on the more nation-specific issues in Scotland, which will then feed into the project as a whole. Chair: Important that these issues are aired in Scotland, since the read across from London may not apply in the Scottish context. Also fits into other events / projects the Centre for Cultural Policy Research has been running. In a recent seminar about press, the constitutional question did not, surprisingly, weigh heavily. The question of survival and sustainable business models came out top. The CCPR has tried to look at that in context of other national models; there is a piece on Policy Scotland blog1, which discusses interim conclusions. With Policy Scotland, it is planning something on broadcasting and independence: there will be an event on 13 May 2014. Media Plurality and the Press – current problems and policy issues arising • Legacy of KM Group decision against mergers • Common ownership of television and newspapers: is it really a concern? • Sustainability struggles for national titles, but strong circulations for some local titles and high penetration for titles like Shetland Times • Newspapers in a new landscape with different competitors: from local blogger, to Google • Discussion over statutory notices and council obligations for printing in newspapers Thinking has been influenced by decisions around attempted purchase by the Kent Messenger (KM) group of 7 Northcliffe titles in 2011, approved by Ofcom but referred by OFT to Competition Commission and subsequently dropped by KM.
