Journalism Worth Saving: What Business Model Works Best for the American People?

While having a thriving and free press is critical to a democracy, the business models that drive most newsrooms—and the social platforms that carry their stories—may benefit from our polarized culture. How can we develop a news business that is both profitable and objectively informs the needs of our democracy? Is the for-profit model passé, or the only scalable approach? Can nonprofits raise the funds to grow beyond a small and often elite audience? Is it time to further expand public media?
