\nThe future of the European Union also hinges on the future of its democratic public sphere. Local journalism plays a vital role in this. For even as public communication increasingly transcends the national public spheres due to globalization, transnational problems such as climate change or migration and the growing importance of Facebook, YouTube and Netflix, local journalism remains a central cornerstone of democracies.<\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n
\nAfter all, it is at the level of local journalism that the global becomes specific, that people learn about the concrete impact of abstract developments, that the powerful become relatable \u2013 and accountable. However, the fact that local journalism has, in many democracies, been considered indispensable for decades, does not mean that we can take its future for granted. Today, the wide-ranging disruption of media and journalism has hit local journalism hard, causing massive economic pressures. Media diversity is shrinking, rendering reporting increasingly one-dimensional and under-funded.<\/span><\/div>\n
