“When we become less informed, we start to care less and less about our community.” #kmf20 #infoneeds

Why is trusted local news critically important to communities and civic engagement? Because “without reliable news, citizens don’t know the issues that are facing a community.” Alberto Ibargüen, President, Knight Foundation #kmf20
