If You Had $1M | Local News Listening Session

Building a stronger news ecosystem depends on hearing directly from communities. Two listening sessions will be hosted in Southeast Minnesota by The True North News Alliance, a coalition that brings together people interested in advocating for local journalism and civic information.

These sessions are open to journalists, publishers, business leaders, technologists, educators and all community members who are willing to share their local news needs and thoughts about how to improve access to trustworthy community information.

Please join us and contribute to a shared conversation focused on the role of local news and storytelling in Minnesota. RSVP here.

We prioritize alignment over rivalry and collective progress over competition.

This statewide news initiative is a partnership between Press Forward Minnesota and Momentum Advocacy. These listening sessions will inform the coalition’s work on policies and partnerships that make local news and information systems sustainable, equitable, and reflective of every region of Minnesota.
