🚀 Episode 30 of the Local News Matters Podcast with John Garrett of Community Impact is out!

Growing print (and newsletters) in the digital age. Serving all residents regardless of socioeconomic status. Business news as reader catnip and community service. Making time to cover civic meetings. Burnout among leaders. Competing for advertising.

Host Tim Regan-Porter's conversation with John Garrett covers these and more in exploring one of the industry's remarkable success stories of the past decade.

Great article from The Sentinel in Aurora about their second annual “story sprint” with students and faculty from Colorado State University Pueblo. Just one of the many projects made possible with support from an Advancing Equity grant - check it out!!

Sentinel awarded grant to return ‘Story Sprint’ project to Aurora this summer

‘The result was an energizing experience for the students and newsroom, that also served Aurora with stories that may not have been covered otherwise’

Replanting Community News: Why a new chapter for 24 weekly newspapers matters for Colorado — and the nation
Replanting Community News: Why a new chapter for 24 weekly newspapers matters for Colorado — and the nation

As hedge funds and billionaires clash swords over control of big-city newsrooms nationwide, a mission-driven coalition of national and local collaborators this month announced an acquisition of Colorado Community Media, the state's largest family-owned chain of weekly newspapers. Both the operational partnership and the impact investment are first-of-their-kinds in the nation. So how and why did this unique deal come together -- and what could it mean for the future of hyperlocal community news and information in Colorado, and the nation? In this session, you'll hear from local and national funders who backed the acquisition, as well as the civic news leaders who will steward the 24 news outlets that collectively serve more than 330,000 Colorado residents. In cities and towns throughout the Denver metro area, these local journalists are often the only ones covering local politics and elected officials, local businesses, public education, health and wellness, the arts, and many other important community issues. Featuring: Lillian Ruiz and Elizabeth Hansen Shapiro, National Trust for Local News Larry Ryckman and Dana Coffield, The Colorado Sun Sue Dorsey, Gates Family Foundation Danielle Shoots, The Colorado Trust Jason Alcorn, American Journalism Project Moderators: Melissa Milios Davis, Gates Family Foundation/Colorado Media Project Laura Frank, Colorado News Collaborative Co-Hosts: Colorado Media Project | Philanthropy Colorado | American Journalism Project NOTE: Capacity for this webinar is limited to 100. To accommodate more registrants, we also plan to webcast the event live - please RSVP to receive the links to attend.
