'There should be much more academic hype around hyperlocal news given the powerful insights it offers our understanding of journalism's changing role in digital spaces. Downman and Murray produce a refined, detailed account of several case studies to highlight the important role media at the local level can play in bringing people together - from those divided by family and neighbourhood feuds to bridging cultural, social and racial differences.' - Kristy Hess, Senior Lecturer in Communication, Deakin University, Australia
