On Talking Media Tony and Nic Hayes discussed the economic downturn in Western Australia and the role the media plays in West Australian’s consumer confidence.

Nic asked listeners the question “do we hear enough positive stories in our media”?

Bad news often sells but does consistent bad news affect our economy? Is it the role of the media to try and change perceptions of the economy or should this happen organically?

It’s all discussed in this week’s edition of Talking Media.
