The digital transformation of traditional print media has seen a fragmentation in audience numbers and a dramatic fall in advertising revenue for newspapers. Paywalls have offered respite to some publications, but these are the minority. Editors and their teams of journalists remain under pressure to churn new content quickly and on smaller budget.
The struggle to make online news commercially viable has seen a shift away from more considered investigative journalism to a more sensationalist approach aimed at securing X’s (formerly Tweets) and Facebook likes to drive online traffic. AI is only pouring fuel on this fire.
This changing landscape has brought with it an increased risk for organisations and individuals across industries. Unfair and twisted allegations can be levelled, but with our collective knowledge spanning all forms of media we can help repair a damaged image and help clients protect against future events.

Some issues require a longer-term systemic approach drawing on both media and political strands above. These can range from single-issue campaigns at either a local or a national level through to counter-campaigning to put your case forward, either directly or indirectly, to decision makers being influenced by other groups with contrary interests to your own. We have extensive campaigning experience. Our team has first-hand knowledge of single-issue and counter campaigning.
