New ‘partner’ sought to save The Global Mail

GlobalStaff of The Global Mail are seeking alternative sources of funding to keep the publication alive after philanthropist Graeme Wood announced he would withdraw his financial commitment from February 20.

In a statement released by The Global Mail, staff say Wood’s departure still allows them to pursue “ambitious plans for the future” and they are seeking both philanthropic and commercial opportunities to maintain the publication.

“We are pursuing editorial and publishing partnerships in Australia and beyond,” the statement said.

“The Global Mail’s award-winning journalism – longform, photos, video, multimedia and data projects – has also been published well beyond The Global Mail’s own multiple urls, on the The Daily Beast, Time.com, Guardian (UK and Australia), CNN and others.”
