The Public Press
Describe your project – 1800 characters:
The Public Press is a startup nonprofit social venture in San Francisco that aims to start a noncommercial daily newspaper that is published Web-first, creating a new relationship between the online experience and printed page. We are planing a yearlong project with three objectives: 1. Build a standards-based Web platform on Drupal aggregating broadcast and online news for print and enabling easy exchange of content among local public media producers. 2. Assemble a coalition of journalism, civic and funding institutions to design a collaborative multimedia newsroom for San Francisco. 3. Build a detailed business/membership development plan for Web-only, weekly-print and daily-print rollout scenarios.
