A historic moment for local journalism in the UK: direct state funding is finally happening. I’m especially glad to see:
- up to £12m going to local media through a new fund;
- my research for @publicinterestnews.org.uk cited along the way.

The Government will pay up to £12m funding to local media outlets over the next two years to support innovation and help fill "news deserts".
