It’s disappointing to see the IBJ partnering with this “Indiana Capital Chronicle” outfit, which is a Democratic dark money operation. I would encourage you to do your due diligence on who is funding and running States Newsroom.
Cancel culture! Besides, that Kenley guy is a flaming liberal. He can’t be trusted.
(End sarcasm).
f
Aaron R is not wrong. This article seems fair but the parent org pledges all over its website to cover news from a progressive perspective. A short time ago they were called “Newsroom Network” and fully owned by Hopewell Fund before being exposed in a WashPo article as democrat dark money and conveniently changing their name. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/02/06/is-it-local-journalism-or-just-local-propaganda/
And yet none of you can read the article, written straight down the line about the efforts of a a 25 year Indiana Republican officeholder appointed by a Republican governor to figure out an issue that’s a competitive disadvantage when it comes to Indiana’s ability to compete for jobs, without instantly running around to discount the source.
Little wonder there are barely any local news sources. Any sort of competition for Gannett should be welcomed.
States Newsroom, of which Indiana Capital Chronicle is a part, and Courier Newsroom, the subject of the WaPo opinion piece below, appear to be two different organizations. I think you might be conflating the two.
https://couriernewsroom.com/
https://statesnewsroom.com/
Joe B. your point is well taken. Nothing wrong or inaccurate with the article and thus nothing wrong with IBJ – a great publication – using it. We have a health problem in Indiana. That said, Aaron has a point about the dangers of dark political money masking as “independent” journalism. If you have issue with Gannet News ownership/independence then you likely share some of Aaron’s concern. And there are plenty of independent reporters – including those at IBJ – covering state politics already. Gannett is not the only source.
I don’t trust Luke K. I do think we need to start handling the mental health issues to get our country under control with the violence and drug problems.
“Investment”. LOL
This is an example of something that could be done with the State’s surplus that would have long term beneficial effects instead of a one time refund.
Jim M. Yes, but it is not going to garner any votes like the refund will. The $ 225 or whatever it is won’t go far in an ER visit that public health investment may have helped avoid.
