Strengthening Local News via Regional Journalism Collaborations in Public Media

Current.org recently highlighted a series of journalism collaborations that have sprung up across the country in recent years.

Public Media Company has played a crucial role as a planning partner for all these collaborations, plus a few more: We were part of the planning for the Kentucky Public Radio collaboration in 2016, and also worked with public media stations in New England News Collaborative on their expansion plans. If you are considering formulating a collaborative journalism entity, Public Media Company can help make sure that you have a vision, operating structure and sustainable business model to ensure your collaboration’s long-term success.
