"Movement journalism is about putting the community at the center. They’re supposed to expose, hold accountable, help do a narrative shift, or move something forward. We’re not movement megaphones, but we are record keepers. We are accountability holders." niemanreports.org/articles/15819…

Matter is working to evolve the local news industry. Our unique model helps ensure journalism is investigative, accessible, engaging + impactful. This guide is meant to help you understand the major issues with the local news industry and how Matter's model aims to solve them.
