Indymedia is unlike commercial media companies, in that no one assigns articles or sets news
agendas. If
someone wants to see more articles by people with disabilities or about disability-related
issues, they need to
get in touch with their local IndyMedia collective and write or propose stories.
In IndyMedia collectives where people have done this (for example, IndyMedia Sheffield has
had a lot of
coverage this part year around the proposed changes to disability benefit) the profile of
disability issues on the
site improves.
