LIDA’s managing director Victoria Curro said: “Fairfax is dedicated to accurate, quality reporting and a relentless pursuit of the truth, something they couldn’t do without the support of their subscribers. We want them to not just appreciate the product they’ve subscribed to, but feel part of its creation and mission.”

Fairfax CMO, Michael Laxton said: “By delivering a message of thanks from our leading journalists directly to a subscriber’s inbox, we’re once again recognising our most valuable readers and the important role they play in supporting the Herald and The Age’s contribution to local communities and the national debate.  Our subscribers have stood behind our leading news mastheads for over 186 years, and we’re continuously working with partners such as LIDA to create ever more innovative ways to connect them with the brands they love.”

LIDA has been appointed as the lead customer engagement agency for The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and The Australian Financial Review.
