The week in 500 words

Good morning everyone and welcome to the 52nd edition of our weekly recap. We celebrate today not only 1 year of weekly newsletters but also the achievements of our fellows and researchers. Take a seat, grab a coffee and join us!

• Our fellow, Simone Benazzo, reviewed two books for Sage Journal.

• Under our Global Media Finances Map project, Adrian Anton, a fellow in our Young Researchers Program, has authored a revealing new study on the finances that are fueling the Romanian media. The report reveals an imbalanced media market: independent outlets struggle to survive as government funds flow to politically aligned national media.

• Our expert, Damian Radcliffe, published a new article for Journalism.co.uk where he maps the evolving trends in food journalism.

• The core mission of our center is to carry out research about media, politics and technology to support sustainable journalism. This week, we highlight one of our flagship projects, Media Influence Matrix- Mexico, where we look who is funding media in the country.

Thank you for your support for the past year!
