Union leaders and management at the Hartford Courant spoke out Thursday about legislation that would allow Courant subscribers to sue the paper’s owners over cost-cutting measures. Mark Pazniokas of the nonprofit CT Mirror himself a Courant alum covers the story.
As expected, management and an association of newspaper publishers criticized the measure as an assault on the First Amendment, while proponents cited an 1887 charter that the legislature granted to the Courant. That charter was revised in 1951.
“So there is a history of the legislature passing special acts about the corporate structure of the parent company of the Hartford Courant,” said Sen. Matt Lesser, according to the Mirror’s report. “That is different from me going in and saying, ‘I’m looking to manage the news operations of the publication.’”
It’s not been an easy year for journalists. Amid a global pandemic, national racial reckoning and volatile election season, journalists have been on the front lines of some of our nation’s most historic events. Journalists are doing critical work for communities and now it’s time for America’s newsrooms to ensure their work is seen, valued, understood and accessible.
For the second year, we’re opening up applications for a Knight initiative to help newsrooms optimize their use of technology. Beginning March 1, we’ll invite nonprofit newsrooms and/or newsrooms aiming to serve new audiences or markets that have been historically underserved to apply for the initiative. This year, we’ll continue offering one-time grants of up to $20,000 to 26 publishers who are looking to adopt and manage a publishing solution that can help improve their business sustainability.
Tiny News Collective aims to launch 500 new local news organizations in three years
At least half of the new newsrooms will be “based in communities that are unserved or underserved, run by founders who have historically been shut out.”

The project will offer entrepreneurial journalists a tech stack, business training, legal assistance, and back-office services like payroll for around $100 a month. From the announcement:
