When you’re in a disaster zone, you don’t need investigative / deep accountability reporting. You just need to know what the fuck is going on: when the power, water, internet will be back on. That’s the kind of basic, vital information communities need and are no longer always getting.
Good points (and +1 on not giving philanthropic $ to profitable commercial newsrooms) but the obvious missing focus here is to give to national and local outlets that focus on investigative / deep accountability reporting. In addition, the groups focusing on journalism safety and security.
Always good points!
Happy Thanksgiving.
