  • Journalism, Truth and Healthy Communities
    Journalism, Truth and Healthy Communities Healthy people, healthy businesses, healthy governments — healthy communities — are all best informed and engaged by independent community journalists who examine school budgets, expose scandals, question practices and politics, scrutinize environmental practices, who champion good and who dare to challenge fear and falsehoods. The work we do in our newsrooms enhances community life, it exposes mental and social health care problems and brings solutions forward, it relentlessly exposes overspending in our governments, and highlights the great people who live and work all around us. Communities are healthier, more engaged, more resilient and better able to thrive when informed by truth.

Knight Foundation New Business Models for News Project Update Presented at Aspen Institute FOCAS August 16-19, 2009 Introduction by Stephen B. Shepard Dean, City University of New York Graduate School of Journalism _______________ We’re delighted to be presenting our work at the Aspen Institute, and I’d like to thank Walter Isaacson and Charlie Firestone for hosting us. We’re also very grateful to the Knight Foundation for their financial support, encouragement, and friendship since we started the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism four years ago. So thank you to Alberto Ibarguren, Eric Newton, and Gary Kebbel. We set out to do something daunting: create new business models for news. You will see a brief overview of the results thus far. We have a lot more detail, which we hope you will dive into over the next three days. We hope to inform the discussion about the future of news with business specifics – experience, facts, figures, research, and analysis. We hope to demonstrate that there is a sustainable future for news. We’re presenting one set of possibilities. Clearly, there are many others. We believe it vital to build and experiment with these new models and share widely our experience and best practices. Our work is all being done in the open at our site, newsinnovation.com. We hope to draw out the ideas of many of you here at Aspen and we invite you to visit our site in the weeks and months ahead to review and contribute to our work.

Introduction The Towns of Yarmouth, Dennis, Orleans, Barnstable, and Falmouth (the “Towns”) are committed to increasing affordable housing rental opportunities for low-to-moderate income households. The Towns have developed a variety of innovative methods to encourage the creation and retention of scattered site rental housing, including by-law provisions for accessory apartments, shop-top housing, and various other zoning and housing incentives. And while committed to ensuring fair and open access to these affordable housing opportunities, the Towns understand that marketing efforts can sometimes be difficult and costly for smaller rental projects. In an effort to further facilitate affordable housing efforts, to ease the financial burden on developers, to ensure that marketing is performed efficiently and effectively by an experienced and qualified entity, and to make the application process for the low-to-moderate income households more streamlined, the following Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plan (AFHMP) has been created. This Plan will result in a lotteried Ready Renter list serving affordable housing developments and affordable accessory apartments in the Towns, their residents, and the residents of Barnstable County and the Commonwealth.
