    Local news has a bright future. Let's not conflate its promise with the death of the newspaper -- to be clear, not a state I celebrate, but expecting a 1:1 replacement, or a new "business model" for the Daily Miracle, is the wrong goal here.

    ISO freelancers to cover Philly sports culture Cover what? That stadium staffer who brings a cat to work. The badminton fanatic who founded a city league. The dude who's taped every Phils game since '97. danya@billypenn.com / spread the word cc

    This is such a worthy topic. I'm glad is tackling it.

    This years challenge is to create something that helps people understand what journalists do and how we do it!

    Today I got to meet in person - a new-ish board member! And also met in the flesh for the first time since she joined our crew. It’s been A Day y’all. But the team LION has is pulling for our members and the field at every level.

    Great points by about the misdirected handwringing about local newspapers … we can create something NEW that does MUCH MORE. As has said, we just need to have a better imagination.
