This is great news!
A former (or soon to be former?) Hogsett employee, a former IndyStar editor, a former democrat member of the General Assembly (albeit one who was respected by all sides). Will it really be non-partisan? Mark Miles’s involvement sounds like an IMS investment in good will at best and a hedge at worst. In any case, good luck to them. OBJECTIVE reporting is a responsibility. Unfortunately, we haven’t had any in a very long time.
No, it won’t, and that’s precisely the intent.
Though no media outlet can be truly perfectly non-partisan, historically many at least tried to be. Part of the journalistic code of ethics was an attempt to gather and impartially present a variety of perspectives. That code of ethics has been abandoned.
This is one of many efforts being funded in red states that will intend to push the narrative further left, born out of a moral panic on the left that they are “losing” despite the fact that they have ideologically captured about 90% of institutions. Even Salvation Army and Walmart are woke, for crying out loud.
My guess is that this “local news initiative” is going to be an effort to bring Indiana more in light with the globalist uniparty by taking a less generic, corporatist approach common Gannett papers (all of which are shedding subscribers) with more Indiana-centric articles, almost entirely through activist minded millennial and Gen Z journalists. The Craig Newmark Foundation is likely to have a hand, as are some of the nonprofit organizations funding big-name entities like Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
View every word they write with suspicion.
Hopefully this new news organization will be nonpartisan.
The truth is, the Indianapolis Star is a leftwing activist newspaper.
That’s why the Star’s circulation and staffing have plummeted.
We don’t need another leftwing news organization.
The funny thing with the Star is that they believe they are “Center Right”. And they believe it.
Ah yes, more tripe from the far right that parrot’s the Trump line that the media that doesn’t agree with him (or his supporters, or their agenda) is “an enemy of the people.” Yet, when the far right gets its media platforms (Newsmax, anyone?) there’s no criticism. I believe hypocrisy is the word for that.
