Twelve Black-led newsrooms from across the United States have been selected to be part of the inaugural cohort of the Black Media Product Strategy Program. This six-month, tuition-free program will train Black-owned newsrooms to build product strategies for digital transformation, audience growth and sustainability.
This program is made possible by a generous grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and is a result of a collaboration between J+ and the Center for Community Media’s Black Media Initiative at CUNY’s Newmark Graduate School of Journalism. The cohort is made up of various kinds of newsrooms, from digital-first organizations to legacy publications, from recently-launched solopreneurs to decades-old large newsrooms.
