A2: Media

Street Fight, an online site that “covers the business of hyperlocal news, information and advertising,” publishes a Q&A with Mallary Jean Tenore and Rick Edmonds, staff of the Poynter Institute, a nationally known journalism training and resource center. In response to a question about innovators in hyperlocal media, Edmonds says: “I admire some of the usual suspects – West Seattle Blog, Dallas South, the Ann Arbor Chronicle and The Batavian. But I worry that if it takes particularly talented and committed people to scratch out an income for one family, such successes may not be scalable.” [Source]
