Power Reporting up for grabs

Power Reporting, at one time a leading destination for journalists in need of computer-assisted-reporting resources, is up for grabs.

Founder Bill Dedman, a Pulitzer Prize-winning former Atlanta Journal-Constitution and Boston Globe reporter who’s now at MSNBC.com, is hoping that a university or non-profit will revive the site or take it in a new direction.

The site was one of the first online stops I’d show my students. As far as I know, there’s nothing else quite like it, although there are numerous sites that will take you part of the way. It was a great resource, and it would be nice to see someone pick up the baton.
