When OMG launched, Mohamed and Wilkinson stated their ambition to hire 250 journalists at 50 news outlets by 2023, which a Guardian headline hailed as a “plan to revive local news.”

It’s nearing the end of 2023 and the company is nowhere near its original goal, employing somewhere in the realm of 30 editorial staff.

Looks like the Daily Hive has hired in Victoria and is going to take a run at the Capital Daily.

Yes, it says they will be starting a newsletter: https://dailyhive.co...toria-launching

 

Mainly lifestyle content, though: From the newest restaurant openings and closings, to travel tips and hidden gems and the most exciting events coming to the city, we’ve got you covered. Want to know what to do this weekend or where to find the best cocktails in the city? Maybe you’re looking for a new hike to try or a road trip where you won’t end up on a ferry. Count on us to bring you the goods.

 

All this stuff is already covered by YAM, Boulevard, Monday, Seaside, Capital Daily, et al. How much more of it do we need?

^ Wasn’t Capital Daily’s boss once the editor in chief at the Daily Hive?

^ Yes, and even the Daily Hive's website admits he built much of what it is today: https://dailyhive.co.../farhan_mohamed

It’s not just a shelter: This sanctuary in Victoria is helping at-risk youth recover and thrive

 

Sanctuary Youth Centre is a safe space for young adults in Victoria to access food, showers and invaluable community connections
