Nieman Foundation at Harvard
Christopher Wink of Technical.ly (Philly et al.) has a useful, smart post on recent changes at AxisPhilly, the foundation-supported effort to create a nonprofit newsroom for Philadelphia, which included the exit of CEO Neil Budde. Wink’s takeaway: Things were moving too slowly; the business side was underdeveloped; editorial lacked focus.
Wink’s asking the right questions, and the ideas in his post, while Philadelphia-specific, would be a useful outline of the sort of questions anyone starting a nonprofit news organization should be asking.
