How to start a newspaper in 2018: The Neighbourhood Paper

Hidden beneath your Facebook feed Australian newspapers and magazines are struggling to turn a profit. Everyone has felt the thinner papers, seen the bigger ads, and cringed at the redundancies.  You would be forgiven for thinking that launching a new broadsheet in Sydney would be impossible. However, that’s exactly what The Neighbourhood Paper is doing.
