This report examines how best to provide regional media with the resources it needs to produce quality public interest journalism, and, with that journalism, to establish links to metropolitan media, so that all Australians have a sense of what the significant issues facing regional dwellers are and how they can best be tackled by policymakers.

In the second of their regional media reports, the Centre for Media Transition has been examining the flow of narratives between metro and regional news media on important policy discussions.
