With all the goings on at S4C at the moment and the general decline in the rest of the Welsh media, you’d think that they would be more careful not to draw even more attention to their own viability and performance of late.
But this is what’s happening as articles from the Our Kingdom website about the Western Mail and Daily Post over the past few weeks show. They were written by Andy Williams, Research Fellow at Cardiff School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies about the decline of the Welsh Print Media, one that is dominated by Trinity Mirror. It's provoked quite a response judging from the comments section and also from Alan Edmunds, Editor of the Western Mail.
The article was also followed up by Guy Aitchinson who looked at how the current cuts in the Newspaper will affect Trinity Mirrors staff and output across the UK.
