We need something similar for print media, that isn’t just transcriptions of PBS/NPR segments.
A big issue here is that NPR/PBS sources a lot of their journalism from outlets such as Propublica or Bellingcat for national/international stories while relying on local affiliate stations to fill in the gap.
As local journalism dies, NPR and PBS have less places to source from. This is a big issue for democracy and something we need to solve.

Some of the best journalism is done by random joe’s with a camera.
