In this episode of Lede The Way, Sarah Stonbely, Senior Research Fellow at the Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia University, joins Morgan Ramsey and Parker Williams to explore the state of local journalism—what’s working, what’s broken, and what the future could look like.
Sarah dives deep into:
How local journalism shapes democracy and civic life
Why news deserts are growing—and how to map them
What sustainable business models could look like for small outlets
The role of philanthropy and public funding in keeping journalism alive
Why “civic information” may matter more than traditional “local news”
The promise of micropayments and how technology can empower independent voices
From Charlotte’s diverse media ecosystem to New Jersey’s Civic Information Consortium, this conversation uncovers how journalism can thrive in an era of fragmentation, innovation, and audience fatigue.
🎙️ Watch the full episode to hear Sarah’s data-driven insights on rebuilding trust and sustainability in local news.
