Thanks to everyone who attended our Northeastern University conference Friday on “What Works: The Future of Local News.” We’ll be posting more in the days ahead, but we wanted to begin by sharing some information from Professors Mike Beaudet and John Wihbey on the Reinventing Local TV News Project. They weren’t able to show videos, so we’re sharing them here.
Above is their “Meet the Fellows!” video, an introduction to the content producers for the third phase of their project. And here’s a piece that was published by Storybench, our School of Journalism digital publication covering media innovation. It links to links the first three underreported stories produced by project fellows in New York, Chicago and Boston.
The project’s video library is available for your perusal as well. And there are written reports for anyone who wants to dig deeper.

The conference at Northeastern was well organized and very informative. Thank you for making it possible! It was a great opportunity to meet and talk with others working on local news. The food was amazing too. I am still dreaming of those fruit platters.
