Over the past decade, innovators have helped build a robust ecosystem of local news infrastructure to provide services, tools, expertise and technology to the industry. This includes dozens of organizations and programs, including the American Journalism Project, Tiny News Collective, Newspack, Indiegraf, URL Media, News Revenue Hub, CatchLight, LION Publishers, the Institute for Nonprofit News, ProJourn, The Video Consortium, BlueLena, News Literacy Project, Big Local News, Muckrock, Lawyers for Reporters, the Knight x LMA BloomLab, NewsMatch, Knight Elections Hub, Report for America and so many more.
Our investments have been aimed at creating a sustainable ecosystem that can support a wide range of local news models — for-profit and nonprofit, hyperlocal and regional and more. Above is a graphic that shows what we see as the necessary elements of running a local news organization, where we are meeting publishers’ needs and where there are still gaps to fill.
