The NB Media Co-op's co-founder and coordinating editor was on CBC Radio on Sunday, discussing how to ensure local news remains viable in our region.
Tracy Glynn explained that the NB Media Co-op was formed 14 years ago by people from social movements, including environmental activists, Indigenous land defenders, labour unions, and anti-poverty advocates.
She said the NB Media Co-op wears its social justice bias on its sleeve.
"We approach our stories with an anti-oppressive lens, where we try to get to the bottom of our social problems," she said.
The question of how to sustain local news is a burning question in the Maritimes today.
SaltWire - a company that owns most newspapers in Nova Scotia, P.E.I., and Newfoundland - has filed for creditor protection, raising questions about the future of an estimated 100 reporters employed by the company.
The NB Media Co-op is currently mid-way through its annual Membership Month. Any amount will help support independent media coverage in New Brunswick that is never behind a paywall.
