Carson Now: To profit or not to profit
Submitted by Kirk Caraway on Sun, 03/07/2010 - 10:54amCommunity news belongs to the community.
This is the concept that led me to develop Carson Now, the idea that for a news organization to truly serve the community, it needed to belong to the community.
Part of this idea comes from my experience of being on the front lines as corporate media cutbacks resulted in communities not being well served in terms of news coverage.
So my idea was to create Carson Now as a nonprofit organization, whose mission was limited to serving the community. Nonprofit media organizations are a fairly new development, with sites like Voice of San Diego and MinnPost leading the way.
