Numbers add up for Swansea Bay Media Master

It's only been going three days but the Swansea Bay Media Master's daily email already has more than 300 subscribers.
The bulletin is a brief highlights package of the Swansea area's marvellous media scene - newspapers, magazines, radio, TV and the web.
Of our subscribers, around 180 are working in the media industry and have commercial and/or editorial interests in the Swansea Bay area.
The other 130 are business people and public sector managers with a professional anchor in Swansea Bay. There'll be lots more of them to come as the days and weeks progress.
Hopefully, a combination of the email and this blog will help stir discussion and debate about the local media scene and will help bind it together a little more tightly. At present it seems fractured more than it should be due to the naturally competitive nature of the game.
But it's tough out there and it's time the industry took a more dynamic local government-style approach and encourage new partnerships. The Media Master - with its growing fanbase - can help.
