Docklands News misses out
It appears Docklands News went early last year when it joyfully reported City of Melbourne support for small independent publishers.
Our July 2015 edition reported that the council was to spend $50,000 on advertising in “smaller innovative start-up or digital publications which are distributed or consumed in the City of Melbourne or align with specific council goals (such as sustainability).”
The successful publications were announced on June 24 and Docklands News was not among them.
The winners were: Invurt; CBD News; Archer; MELD; Smudge; The Lifted Brow; Amateur Hour; On the List; The ​Plus Ones and Australian Arts Review​.
