These include:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>raising important issues that may never otherwise come to light<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>providing information and advice to readers so that they can make informed decisions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>unpicking complicated government policies and explaining what this means to everyday life<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>challenging policies and decisions made by food, energy and service providers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>reporting the facts and providing opinion&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The study showed that 55 per cent of people believe \u201cthat local and national newspapers are playing different but equally valuable roles\u201d for their readers and communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Three-quarters of all respondents also think advertisers should be investing more or the same in trusted journalism so they can continue to cover the big issues like the cost of living.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jo Allan, Newsworks chief executive, said: \u201cThis research demonstrates the significant role journalism plays in people\u2019s lives, which is especially vital in these incredibly difficult times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTrusted journalism helps provide people with a clear understanding of what is going on in the world, and how it affects them day-to-day. Quality journalism also offers vital information and advice while challenging the powerful by scrutinising every decision made. And given the current global economic backdrop and political chaos here in the UK the role of journalists couldn\u2019t be more vital right now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>News Media Association chief executive Owen Meredith said: \u201cJournalism Matters is an annual celebration of the enormous value local, regional and national news media brands create for our democratic society, in so many different ways.
