Crises transform newsrooms. The friction-heated process of producing accurate information quickly, amid professional (and often personal) stress, can crack a news team — or temper it. As someone fortunate to work in news since 1996, I’ve seen teams of reporters respond to September 11, the Great Recession, and mass shootings from Stanton Heights to Tree of Life.

The current crisis is unique. So is PublicSource’s response.

Today marks the kickoff of the Give Big Pittsburgh COVID-19 Response. I hope you will consider supporting PublicSource ([link removed]) as part of this initiative and include it in your giving plans — if you are able. Thank you.
