In this week’s Media Confidential Alan and Lionel are joined by Joshi Hermann, founder of The Mill.
The three discuss how The Mill has expanded out from Manchester to seven cities in just three years and it’s plans to revitalise and redefine local reporting.
They also discuss The Mill’s funding model and why Joshi believes the method is sustainable, and how he is ensuring that essential public interest journalism is still freely available to read.
