The @wsj.com reports the newsletter business is booming. It certainly is for @davejorgenson.bsky.social and Local News International. www.wsj.com/business/med...

Dave Jorgenson, who helped build the Washington Post’s TikTok presence, left the paper in July to launch Local News International on Beehiiv. It has 12,000 subscribers, fewer than 1,000 of whom pay.

Audiences these days trust individual journalists more than they do established media outlets, Jorgenson said. The Washington Post helped him build his base, he said, but “I hit a ceiling on what I could do there.”

Local News International is proud to launch our ethics and transparency pledge. We believe it's important for independent journalists to hold themselves to high standards. Should we add something to our promise? Let us know! @davejorgenson.bsky.social

Transparency and ethics pledge. Local News International makes this promise to our audience.

We believe in Facts. Our journalism is fact-based and fact checked. We share our sources so you can go deeper.

We are transparent. If we don't know something, we'll tell you. Same if a story is still developing.

We are where you are.
We put our videos where you already are. If we're missing a place, tell us.

Our funding sources are public. You'll always know when a video is sponsored. We'll publish an annual list of our funders.

We fix mistakes. If we get something wrong, we'll make a correction and tell you about it.

We are human. We don't use AI to create our journalism. Absolutely no exceptions.

1983 was a good year for music. The Police topped the charts with 'Every Breath You Take.' But in Local News International's official view, '84, '85, and '86 are really the heart of the decade for quality tunes.
