A new online survey from Federal Parliament is asking Australians, including Moorabool residents, for their thoughts on news access in regional, rural, and remote areas.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Australia\u2019s Regional Newspapers\u2019 survey is part of a federal parliamentary inquiry into regional newspapers, with concerns that local news production has decreased in recent years.<\/p>\n

Chair of the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Communications and the Arts, Dr Anne Webster MP, asked regional Australians to take part in the survey and have their say.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the past ten years, news outlets in rural, regional and remote communities have closed their doors, which has resulted in a substantial reduction of articles covering local issues,\u201d Dr Webster said.<\/p>\n

The Moorabool News editor Helen Tatchell said there was a reason why some news outlets had closed.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt must be made clear that many of those that closed are heavily linked to the big players, Murdoch\u2019s News Limited publications and Australian Community Media (ACM). It\u2019s all about the dollar, not community for them,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo rub salt into the wound, the federal government then funded some of these publications to open again for two years. A report in The Guardian said, \u2018ACM was awarded more than $10m to continue publishing more than 100 regional newspapers through the covid pandemic, but even before the Public Interest News Gathering (PING) grant deed was signed it was closing or scaling back titles.\u2019,\u201d Ms Tatchell said.<\/p>\n
