On a mission to save local, independent journalism one outlet at a time.

Overall, 2,500 newspapers in the United States — a quarter of them — have closed since 2005. The country is set up to lose one-third of its newspapers by 2025. We’re working to save New Mexico’s news landscape one outlet at a time.

“What that does is it feeds into a nation that is divided journalistically, and when you have a nation divided journalistically, it exacerbates our political, cultural and economic divisions…

“Truth of the matter is, who I elect to the school board affects me much more than who I vote for for president. That’s why we’ve got to get back to rebuilding local news in these struggling communities.”
