We have two recommendations for you today. First, listen to our latest podcast, highlighted by our interview with Art Cullen, editor of Iowa’s Storm Lake Times. Then, watch the documentary “Storm Lake,” which is on most PBS stations (including GBH-2 in Boston) at 10 p.m. Dan previewed “Storm Lake” for GBH News last week.

Local news is in crisis, as community newspapers across the country have been hollowed out by the loss of advertising and by devastating cuts imposed by corporate chain owners and hedge funds. WhatWorks.news focuses on the path forward by examining innovative policy proposals and independent news projects that are showing signs of success. “What Works in Community News: Media Startups, News Deserts, and the Future of the Fourth Estate” is a book project that is being co-authored by longtime Boston Globe journalist Ellen Clegg and School of Journalism Professor Dan Kennedy. It will be published by Beacon Press in January 2024, and you can read all about it here.
