How local newsrooms can adapt to changing news habits
We're making new Media Insight Project research actionable for local news leaders, offering a tactic you can try each week, supported by the study’s findings.
Mental well-being in the newsroom
We’re almost halfway through the year, and Mental Health Awareness Month is a good time to pause and reflect on our well-being and that of our newsrooms.
2026 elections season
Each week will offer a combination of frameworks to inspire new approaches to your election coverage and strategic suggestions you can put in place right away. Look for an idea that aligns with your organization’s mission or your community’s needs, and dig into resources to try it out.
