How BIPOC News Entrepreneurs Are Changing News Ownership

The business challenges in the news industry have set back burgeoning diversity efforts, with young diverse journalists more likely to be laid off and underserved communities disproportionately impacted by cuts. But these economic trends also create a generational opportunity to change who owns the news. In this session, meet news entrepreneurs responding to audience demand for more equitable coverage and filling community news gaps. They will share why they chose to stop trying to push for change from within traditional media outlets and are instead starting new ones. Sponsored by Indiegraf.
