New York is characterized by striking contradictions, including vast wealth alongside extreme inequality, diversity paired with segregation, and ambitious climate initiatives that remain unmet. The state has seen a significant drop in local news outlets, reducing public accountability and transparency. New York Focus, as the sole statewide nonprofit news outlet, aims to illuminate these issues through diligent reporting, empowering citizens to understand how decisions impact their lives, and fostering accountability among those in power. The organization calls for support to continue delivering critical investigative journalism and initiate meaningful policy changes.
New York is an incongruous state, combining fabulous wealth and the highest wealth inequality, alongside diversity yet extreme segregation, and ambitious climate laws undermined by inaction.
Our journalism scrutinizes how power operates in New York, revealing how obscure decisions affect the lives of ordinary residents and holding powerful figures accountable.
