Keeping in-depth journalism alive in the digital age
As more and more of us choose to go online for our news, the question persists: Are news outlets ? whether digital, broadcast, or paper-and-ink ? financially sustainable in the long-term? Nick Lemann, the Dean of Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism, thinks they can stay afloat with help from the government and philanthropists. Phil Balboni, of the entirely online news outlet GlobalPost, isn’t entirely sure this type of funding is the best way to go.
Less than .05% of listeners will donate. Can we count on you?
Our coverage reaches millions each week, but only a small fraction of listeners contribute to sustain our program. We still need 224 more people to donate $100 or $10/monthly to unlock our $67,000 match. Will you help us get there today?
