Reimagining local news in Minnesota
Manage episode 434019657 series 2511237
If the business model of local news needs an overhaul, what can the journalists who work inside the system do to change it?
Listen to part two in our Report for America conversation about the state of local news. Our first conversation was with local and national philanthropy leaders who want to build new ways for local news to thrive.
This time, the focus is entirely on Minnesota. During an evening event on July 18 at the Weisman Art Museum, host Angela Davis talked with news leaders from across Minnesota about the challenges and opportunities for journalists in the current media landscape.
Together, they highlight the need for fresh business models, for a workforce that better reflects the communities it serves, and for a collaborative, instead of a competitive, approach among Minnesota newsrooms.
Guests:
Chao Xiong, managing editor of Sahan Journal
Steve Grove, CEO and publisher of the Star Tribune
Nora Hertel, founder and executive director of Project Optimist
Chelsey Perkins, news director at KAXE
Georgia Fort, independent journalist
