A disappointing outcome: New CA-Google journalism deal denied those most impacted by the lack of local news - the public - a meaningful voice. Good policy is made out in the open, where people can see and participate in the democratic process. freepress.net/news/press-rel…

.@freepressaction has long favored taxing advertising as a way to support local journalism. But CA lawmakers must improve SB 1327 to address the root causes of the crisis in local news. Our statement: freepress.net/news/press-rel…

Final piece in @ObjectiveJrn series on civic media: To address the "local news crisis," we need a collaborative and equitable movement that treats journalism as the public good it is and advocates for investing in communities long-ignored by legacy media. objectivejournalism.org/2024/04/its-no…

Thank you @GovMurphy for your continued support for local news, including creating models like @NJCivicInfo. In this moment of crisis, NJ must continue to lead & take bold action to grow a public-interest media system that serves communities. @freepress stands ready to help

As we see newsroom cuts – from layoffs at WSJ, to the Messenger shutdown, and various walkouts – we are reminded that journalism is essential to the health of democracy. NJ will always be a pro-labor state, and we stand with journalists who deserve a voice in their newsrooms.
