News @ Knight is a twice-a-month newsletter focused on local journalism that informs and engages diverse communities and seeks to integrate technology to reach news audiences and build sustainability. For decades, Knight Foundation has been smack in the middle of the battle to preserve local journalism. And that’s one major goal of the newsletter: to share what we’re seeing, provide insight into our strategy and, hopefully, connect dots for those trying to navigate this crucial time in the evolution of local journalism.
