  • Building a pipeline of young local reporters

    Building a pipeline of young local reporters
    Oct 5 2026
    Katy Temple is the executive director of the Foundation for Local News, a New Jersey nonprofit focused on student journalism. She found her way back to journalism through her community college newspaper. That led to advocacy for New Voices legislation, a political science degree from Columbia, and stints in state and federal government. Then a LinkedIn message from Mike Shapiro turned her plan to start a nonprofit into an offer to run his. Katy explains the foundation's first workshop series, which covers personal branding, short form video, and broadcast. She also lays out the long game: pilot newsrooms in schools that don't have one, paid pathways into local outlets, and a model other states could adopt. Along the way she walks through the legal cases that shape student press rights. She also makes the case that funding student journalism means investing in democracy itself, the same way we invest in roads and schools.

  • How a newsroom of one bought its hometown paper

    How a newsroom of one bought its hometown paper
    Sep 28 2026
    Amy Bushatz spent 13 years at Military.com before moving to Alaska and launching the Mat-Su Sentinel, a nonprofit, digital first newsroom she runs largely on her own. After hearing at a public meeting that the local paper, The Frontiersman, was about to lose its public notice revenue, she closed a deal with its owners in about two weeks and took over the 80 year old Frontiersman's brand, archive, and subscribers, but not its building or printing press. In this episode Amy talks through the messy reality of acquisition, from locked social accounts and unreliable subscriber data to boxes of unlabeled photo negatives. She also explains why she skips opinion and police blotters, how her LION Publishers award winning model rests on nine income streams, and why she approaches fundraising the way a candidate approaches an election.

  • The scrappy playbook behind premium print

    The scrappy playbook behind premium print
    Sep 21 2026
    Everyone keeps declaring print dead. Megan Schertler has built an entire career proving the opposite. As cofounder and managing director of In Real Life Media, she helps publishers and brands put print magazines back at the center of their business, treating it as the anchor rather than the afterthought. In this conversation she explains why print is now outperforming digital on trust, how COVID and AI reshaped what audiences actually believe, and why so many new magazines fold after a couple of issues. She breaks down the small but mighty model built on obsessive readers, the generational knowledge gap that leaves publishers unsure how to sell print, and the unglamorous operational decisions that quietly decide whether a title survives.
