"Researcher identifies promising online news sites," Newsroom America, Aug. 23, 2010
As local online news services become more numerous, discussions regarding their quality and stability have increased as well.
Michele McLellan, who served as a 2009-2010 Reynolds Journalism Institute (RJI) Fellow at the University of Missouri, has found dozens of online news sites that are gaining traction. She says it is vital for the future of the news industry to identify these promising sites.
“It is very important to identify the good online news sites, find out what they are learning, and share that knowledge so we can make the emerging news ecosystem stronger,” McLellan said. “We want to find out what works, what doesn’t work, and what kind of successes and problems these sites are having so we can find ways to improve.”
