The State of Local News 2025 report by @LocalNewsIni is out, drawing on two decades of data. And the findings are stark. News deserts hit a record high, leaving 50M Americans with limited or no access to local coverage. Learn more: localnewsinitiative.northwestern.edu/projects/state…

Possible unsafe conditions in Foxboro: - Tedeschi’s is out of Zyns - Papa Gino’s sale on breadsticks - heated parking lot debate about Roche Bros vs. Market Basket - Hostile takeover by Rhode Island

President Trump said that he could “take away” the 2026 World Cup games scheduled in the Boston area if he feels there are “unsafe conditions.” trib.al/UTF7BRf

Peterson & Jeong find that local media strengthens issue accountability. By reducing uncertainty about legislators’ policy positions, news makes voters more likely to evaluate politicians on issues, not just party lines. #MediaAndPolitics Read more: link.springer.com/article/10.100…

LSU is hiring at the assistant level in Comparative (open specialization), and two positions in Judicial Politics. CP job should post soon and judicial job is live. I’m on the CP search committee but happy to answer questions about both searches!

As the cable news channel MSNBC splits up with NBC News, it is also dropping the "NBC" from its name: Later this year, it will become MS NOW, which stands for My Source for News, Opinion, and the World. cnn.com/2025/08/18/med…

Great work from my @SyracuseIDJC colleagues!

New article: When people have access to newspapers, belief that elections are well run is less likely to be influenced by the winner-loser effect than in counties with little newspaper penetration. doi.org/10.1016/j.elec…

Thank god for Palmers Variety Store in Pittsfield, Mass., which still carries 11 daily newspapers, everything from NY Post to FT (NYT out of frame to left). This at a time when you can't buy a single paper at the Philadelphia or Baltimore train station, and many other places.

The New York Times is always a little over its skis when it tries to be a local newspaper.


Fascinated by the (new?) rules in New Jersey that allow candidates to basically put a slogan on the ballot by changing their “nominating group” in each county. This primary is not low-info for someone just showing up at the ballot box!
