Limited resources and the pandemic have driven many toward providing community news, information and services rather than traditional accountability journalism."It's not just about a legal or structural shift, but it also represents a shift in how the mission of journalism is changing," said Emily Roseman, research director & editor at the Institute for Nonprofit News .
By comparison, at least 100 newspapers have closed during COVID, said Penny Abernathy, a visiting professor at Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism. The past year, saw "a tipping point" of people in the philanthropic world "understanding that nonprofits have to play a bigger role in local news," said Waldman.suggest around 50 local outlets were added during the pandemic, many of which are digital nonprofits.Many local upstarts and nonprofits are still small compared to the newspapers that once dominated American journalism.
Can't say the same for Axios, which is bought. Neither accountable journalism b/c too much spin, nor reliable information, again, b/c too much spin. They're up there with Politico these days, owned by a hedge fund.
