We need funding streams that support an impactful, equitable wave of journalism — and not just funnelling resources into the status quo or to support quotas without any quality standard. Not all content is created equal + we need to remember why journalism is important beyond just for the sake of it

I think news outlets should receive funds based on their quality of reporting, representation/voice, community need, and a demonstrated impact. It shouldn't be purely about quotas (LJI) or existing spending (CJC).

Feeling grateful for the thought and care put into this story by editors @tahtone.bsky.social & @caramck.bsky.social, and I absolutely love the stunning illustrations by @jessieboulard.bsky.social
