Members of News Is Out, a collaborative of six legacy LGBTQ+ media organizations across the country, have expressed support and excitement about the newly announced national Press Forward effort to support local media in the United States. News Is Out members represent more than 200 years of LGBTQ+ news and culture coverage, with two member papers starting more than 50 years ago. Tracy Baim, co-founder of Windy City Times said, “This new effort from foundations, including MacArthur Foundation and Knight Foundation, truly will be a game-changer in the local media space.” The press release said that the fund will enhance local journalism, re-center local news as a force for community cohesion, and close longstanding inequities in journalism coverage and practice.
