Location
The decline in local news coverage by the Wellesley Townsman has left an information gap in Wellesley. We will chat with Deborah about the importance of local media and what role she sees for the Swellesley Report.
According to WGBH, “researchers at the University of Notre Dame and the University of Illinois at Chicago found that a municipality’s borrowing costs increase in statistically significant ways…in places where there is no longer a news outlet that reports on important local issues.” Together we will explore the role our Swellesley Report plays as a watchdog for local government and what this means for us and our town.
