Thumbs down for Press Gazette trust hopes

The notion of forming a media industry trust to own and run the Press Gazette isn't getting a good press. Stephen Glover writes in his Independent column: "I am afraid I do not think this would be a terribly good idea." Kim Fletcher , in The Guardian, "cannot discern the common interest that would see such a variety of groups find the money and time to invest in such a project". And the Spanish newspaper commentator, Juan Antonio Giner, dismisses both the trust plan and the magazine's continuance as a print product: "Internet and the media blogs provide today a lot of information on real time... The era of media gatekeepers is gone." (Via The Independent and The Guardian)
