Media Files: Facebook's Mia Garlick on #Ausvotes2019 and how Australian MPs use social media

Media Files is produced by a team of journalist/academics who have spent decades working in and reporting on the media industry. 

They’re passionate about sharing their understanding of the media landscape, especially how media policy, commercial manoeuvres and digital disruption are affecting the kinds of media and journalism we consume. The media is evolving rapidly, as new platforms and trends come and go. As old media empires collapse, new ones are forming. But the need to protect diversity, public interest journalism and public broadcasting has, arguably, never been greater.

Catch Media Files each month for discussion about the key issues and ideas facing this vital industry.
