Hedge‑fund owners have been buying up and dramatically downsizing local newspapers across the United States, stripping communities of vital news coverage and driving many outlets out of business. In Chicago, journalists and community leaders are pushing back by launching nonprofit news projects, seeking public‑funding support, and mobilizing readers to preserve independent reporting that holds power accountable and keeps neighborhoods informed.

Made in Lambeth, Failed in Lambeth: The catastrophic Starmer project was born in the borough – and is now crashing down in humiliating fashion, thanks to Claire Holland’s latest bout of petty Labour factionalism
For twenty years, Lambeth Labour behaved as though the borough belonged to them. Not represented. Not governed. Owned.

She photographs local newsrooms before they disappear
Photographer Ann Hermes is fascinated by things that evoke a time gone by, or about to pass into history. Lately that's led her to spend a lot of time in newspaper offices across the country, particularly in smaller cities and towns where local news is endangered by the ongoing business woes of journalism. Her photographs dispel the notion that journalism is a glamorous profession populated by elitists. Often it's populated by people in ill-fitting clothes oblivious to the shabby offices that surround them, doing work they feel is a civic duty. Hermes has photographed 50 newsrooms, and she's halfway to her goal.
MarkThis is worthy.

Josh RenaudA blight that has bedeviled Kinloch for seven years is finally shrinking. Over the past week, workers have begun gnawing at a 6-acre mountain of shingles and other solid waste.
It wasn't always like this. Two derelict buildings on the site began as schools: Kennedy Junior High and Kinloch Senior High. Later they served as City Hall and a community center.
