Re-Imagining Journalism: Local News for a Networked World identifies five strategic areas and specific ideas for promoting experimentation, collaboration and public engagement that are critical for reforming local journalism. The paper calls upon a variety of stakeholders in business, the nonprofit sector, government and community institutions, and citizens themselves to each play a role in nurturing a revitalized and re-imagined local media ecosystem. It is the seventh in a series of white papers following up the recommendations of the Knight Commission on the Information Needs of Communities in a Democracy. Learn more at www.knightcomm.org
