About this listen
In this week's episode, I look at how the News Media Bargaining Code being enforced by the Australian government is impacting independent music media outlets. To get some more insight into how it is affecting local media I asked some questions to local blogs Purple Sneakers and Stoney Roads to find out what they have done since the ban took place and what their future looks like with social media marketing.
While the intentions of the Bargaining Code are good it does seem that they don’t take into account small media outlets, it also begs the question of whether the ACCC who has created the code actually understand the way these digital platforms work and why they are only really focused on Facebook and Google - not to mention… are they listening to the needs of the actual outlets?
