ACMA calls for submissions on its news measurement framework
The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) is seeking feedback on a ‘news measurement framework’ to monitor levels of diversity across Australia’s media landscape.
The proposed framework was initially outlined in an ACMA 2020 research paper, and was developed in collaboration with leading experts. In late 2022, the Minister for Communications, Michelle Rowland, asked the ACMA to proceed with scoping the potential implementation of this work.
The ACMA is now seeking views from relevant stakeholders including media companies, digital news and social media platforms, government bodies, academia and consumers on the suitability of our proposed framework. The consultation will be open for comment until 5pm (AEDT) Friday 17 March 2023.
Would be good to hear updates on how this progresses, both the News MAP and the news measurement framework in general.
