Advancing sustainability & excellence in nonprofit public service journalism

Community Journalism Executive Training

Revenue diversification, audience measurement and a focus on business planning were among the key takeaways from the three-day Community Journalism Executive Training program held in Los Angeles, Calif. last week.

More than 30 independent for profit and nonprofit publishers attended the event, a collaboration of the Investigative News Network, Block by Block and the Knight Digital Media Center at USC Annenberg. The program is based on the Block by Block Super Camp — a training and mentoring program for publishers, produced by KDMC and supported by the Patterson Foundation.

Among the speakers were Evan Smith of the Texas Tribune, Chris Sopher from the Knight Foundation, and Joseph Meyer from the Sundance Festival. The newsrooms were also mentored by Janet Coats and Rusty Coats.
