N2  - "Trust Ownership and the Future of News" makes the case for an alternative structure that can sustain the forms of journalism necessary in a free, functioning democracy and which engender public confidence in the news media. This ground-breaking study examines the past and present use of trustee governance by newspapers, public service broadcasters and news agencies in the United Kingdom, Ireland, the United States, Canada, South Africa, India, Australia and New Zealand. Its case studies of the "Guardian", "Irish Times" and "Tampa Bay Times"  plus examination of the family trusts behind the "Daily Mail", "New York Times", "Wall Street Journal" and "Washington Post" ₆ detail the principles, practices and lessons of trustee ownership that can be applied by the digital 'new media' generation entrusted with the future of news
