Yes! A sustainable revenue model is key. Philanthropy and billionaires are not long-term answers.
Great to see interest and new funding come to local news sources like @baltimoresun, they see the opportunities. But billionaires, hedge funds, and grants only buy time. The bedrock need is for biz models where reader revenue keeps the independent local news going.
