The Poynter Institute, a global leader in journalism, is proud to announce the hiring of two new faculty members for key roles advancing the sustainability of local news.
Megan Griffith-Greene, most recently the service journalism editor at The Washington Post, is Poynter’s new faculty member leading an effort to educate potential funders of local news on important journalism ethics principles. Funded by a grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, the five-year program will teach potential philanthropic funders the ethical principles that guide newsrooms and the guardrails that need to exist between those funding journalism and those producing it.
Kate Cox, who has led Poynter’s transformational Leadership Academy for Women in Journalism since 2023 as an adjunct, becomes a full-time faculty member. She’ll continue to lead trainings in management, craft and helping local news leaders transform their newsrooms.
