Strategies & case studies to transform your newsroom
The horrors and traumas keep repeating.
And a lot of people, including the people who cover the news, keep showing us what’s happening, helping us imagine the unimaginable and fighting for answers.
This week, I want to use this newsletter to remind you that those people and places need support. Sharing their work is good. Supporting it is better.
Last month, after another horror, my colleague Doris Truong wrote about how to start being a better ally ([link removed]) . This section stuck with me:
“Donating — time or money — to a trustworthy cause is an actionable way to make a difference. You can give money anonymously if you truly want to help without claiming credit.”
