Alt Media

Sydney, AU

AltMedia publishes the City Hub, Sydney’s last remaining independent community newspaper -- providing vital coverage for the inner city. In 1995 the first issue of the City Hub hit the streets vowing to “print the news and raise hell”. Over the last two decades the Hub has promoted more than a half million performances, events and shows. We have broken news and offered alternative views to Sydney’s mainstream media outlets. We are not your everyday paper. Australia is the most consolidated media market in the free world. One publisher, Rupert Murdoch controls 57% of all daily newspaper distribution in the country. No other western democracy has allowed so many media assets to be controlled by one corporation. For 20 years the City Hub has provided an independent alternative to the mainstream media..
