Sharing this 📹 video featuring one of my amazing publishers @drolarkb. She and her father Calvin W. Rolark worked to create positive change with the @WashInformer. #inspirational #motivation #LocalNews

The @Meta layoffs will be particularly hard for publishers of color. @localmediarocks explains Meta made sure that 50% of their programs were allocated to BIPOC publishers. @defendernetwork @SacObserver @NYAmNews made great digital wins in these labs

We had an amazing behind-the-scenes look at the @afro archives. Thanks, @FrancesToniD for the tour, and look at your 130-year history!
100% agreed with @ramsammy! @janislware & @JAWS_215 from @theatlantavoice. Knocked it out of the park with their session today during the launch of our second cohort.

A new study from @sellbranded highlights a $20B spending increase now that 2 out of every 3 local businesses are using content marketing. See what the trend from SMBs means for local media. brandedcontentproject.com/po…
