North Country Public Radio gets a lot of attention around the US for its reporting.\u00a0 People ask us this question a lot:<\/p>\n
“How does a small, rural station tucked away in a part of New York so Upstate that even a lot of Upstaters don’t know where it is manage to do the kind of work you do?”<\/p>\n
The answer, of course, is that we have a newsroom with about 4,000 people sharing the work.<\/p>\n
Some of us, like Todd Moe, get out of bed at 4 am every weekday to make sure we have the most up-to-date information.<\/p>\n
Some of us chip in $20 or $40 to pay for a tank of gasoline, or to help us pay the costs of one investigative report.<\/p>\n
Some of us come in to volunteer answering phones.\u00a0 Or cook loaves of banana bread.\u00a0 Or donate pizzas.<\/p>\n
That’s the kind of newsroom that should<\/em> put out great, fact-based, community-rooted journalism, right?\u00a0 It’s a collaborative effort driven by literally hundreds of passionate, thoughtful people.<\/p>\n So whether you’ve been on the NCPR news team for decades, or joined us over the last week, it’s great to work with you.\u00a0 The stories, the factual information, the voices you hear over the next year — you did that.<\/p>\n As a journalist, I can’t think of a better way to run a newsroom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" North Country Public Radio gets a lot of attention around the US for its reporting.\u00a0 […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[19],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.northcountrypublicradio.org\/inbox\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4978"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.northcountrypublicradio.org\/inbox\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.northcountrypublicradio.org\/inbox\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.northcountrypublicradio.org\/inbox\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.northcountrypublicradio.org\/inbox\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4978"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.northcountrypublicradio.org\/inbox\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4978\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.northcountrypublicradio.org\/inbox\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4978"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.northcountrypublicradio.org\/inbox\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4978"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.northcountrypublicradio.org\/inbox\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4978"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
