We are two journalists with 25 years-plus experience reporting on the U.S.-Mexico border, and started our own outlet in 2021 reporting on the border region with context and analysis. It's been tough learning the business side, but we are independent and growing. @theborderchronicle.bsky.social
Other folks have said it, but let me just note that:
(1) lots of talented, must-read journalists have been let go from their jobs over the last year
(2) millions of Americans are abandoning current media outlets and looking for new alternatives
Seems like a sure-fire business opportunity here?
