Online & Digital Media News – Independent publishers oppose media bailouts

The Macdonald-Laurier Institute has organized opposition to media bailouts with independent publishers Holly Doan of Blacklock’s Reporter, Sam Cooper of The Bureau, Rudyard Griffiths of The Hub, Tara Henley of Lean Out, Candice Malcolm of True North, Derek Fildebrandt of The Western Standard, Claire Lehman of Quillette, Substack commentator Paul Wells, and columnist Andrew Coyne, among those signing a pledge denouncing federal newsroom subsidies. The group is encouraging other digital news outlets to sign the “Ottawa Declaration on Canadian Journalism” and reject payroll subsidies asserting they “damage the independence of the press, stifle much needed innovation and private investment and fail to rebuild readers, listeners and viewers’ trust in our industry.”
