Indianapolis needs this new service to keep citizen’s informed about local government and state functions. Applause!
Former publisher of The Indianapolis Star?
That says there is a very good chance of a left of center bias right out of the gate.
In today’s environment for almost anybody on the right, publishing anything truthful and factual would be “left of center bias”, so yes, to many people, they will appear bias.
Journalism must finally shed the “both-sides” aim that the right has learned so well to take advantage of… politicians and others on the right spew misinformation and count on journalists to report it alongside facts from the “other side,” or else be declared to be “biased.” The aim of journalism must be to report facts and truths, and be unafraid to shine a light on misinformation.
Ah yes, the old “reality has a liberal bias” coming from Dan M. Our buddy Stephen Colbert, whose late-night shtick used to be pretty solid when he trotted that catchphrase, is now basically using the same language to describe MAGA populists that George Wallace used 50 years ago to describe–well, you know.
As recently as 2015 I probably agreed with Colbert’s “liberal bias” statement. But since I don’t despise working- and middle-class people, I left the Colbert hivemind along ago. As it would appear more people are doing. Greg Gutfeld now gets better ratings than all the network late-night pundits, and his humor is just as cringey as Colbert’s.
It’s 2023. Does reality still have a liberal/left bias? I mean, according to the left, men can be women, giving heroin to junkies is “harm reduction”, Nazis are America’s greatest threat but an asset to Ukraine, casting doubt on elections that get halted for hours/days/weeks and then always show a certain party’s victory is “denigrating democracy”, and any attempt to question the need for COVID authoritarianism is, in Steve D’s words, “misinformation”.
The layoffs at lefty legacy media outlets continue. Must be terrifying to the “reality-based party” that more people are recognizing that, if journalists abandon the “both sides” aim (as 98% of them have), a growing number recognize the result is agitprop.
Agreed Lauren.
Well said!
I hope I’m wrong, but this sounds like another version of Leftwing advocacy
journalistism that already permeates the bulk of the legacy national news media
as well as our local Indianapolis Media.
A couple of things.
1). Gannet has not served many cities well including Indianapolis.
So there is a need locally.
2). Will tough journalistic standards be enforced with these kids.
That is very important.
3). When discussing diversity of the news room and reporters,
will that include conservative thought?
4). What is the mission statement?
If this is just another version of leftwing advocacy, it will fail miserably.
Dan M.
The problem is journalists in the legacy national news media and in
most larger local markets are heavily left of Center.
So called diversity in the newsroom is a joke.
We are typically getting very left of Center journalistic stories.
Cool!!
Are you 8 years old?
With the names, funding sources, locations, and affiliated news platforms mentioned, this is obviously aimed at the black community. We can only hope it is truly non-biased, fair, and informative!
As you note, given the funding sources, it’s aimed at a certain demographic, and it’s almost certain to offer a message and narrative that the funders are seeking, and of course, the funders will use the pseudo-neutral, pseudo-benign term of “non-profit journalism” to peddle influence. And since the black community’s support for the Dems is slipping, new sources of propaganda are necessary to keep them on the–well, you know.
Don’t worry, corporate media devotees…those of us who threw in the towel on legacy media (and our giddy at their continued misfortunes) know full well that almost anything they call “misinformation” or “conspiracy theory” is an inconvenient truth, whether coming from a mega corp or some “investigative” nonprofit. And many of us also put Fox News in that “legacy media” dustbin.
The majority of what you comment on this business journal is an alternate fact Lauren…. It makes sense that even Newsmax is likely not far right enough for your liking.
Thanks Frankie! To be fair, I’m far too right wing for Hitler as well. And yet also a better Marxist than any of the wokies. Weird times.
The best way to know you’re touching on truths in a “time of universal deceit” is to be called misinformation, conspiracy theory, or in your case, “alternative facts”.
Still salty about the latest round of “journalist” layoffs?
WOW a lot of lefties hating big today. Your right there is no bias. I’m personally sick of reading in the locals about the junkie Biden Kid, the fact that social media is filled with federal agents, Men really can’t have babies, and BLM is a scam. Just kidding you never read anything about these issues. I agree there is little chance this “new” organization will change the landscape.
For all the reasons cited above, it is highly doubtful this product will be as advertised
Different question: IBJ do you remember your editorial column talking about how journalists are unbiased and ethical? I do. It was a spit out your coffee, laughable moment. If journalism is unbiased and ethical, why would this new outlet be needed?
