"Macon deserves an obsessively local news brand," McDuffie argued, and "the incentive structure of hedge fund-owned newspapers is often misaligned with community journalism needs, focusing more on profits than serving local interests." This highlights the Trust's mission to prioritize community engagement in journalism.
"The Trust has experienced rapid growth with 65 newspapers across three states, 100,000 paying subscribers, and $50 million in earned revenue, showcasing a viable model for local news in today’s media landscape." This reflects the success of the nonprofit approach.
