Donate NowPulitzer Center Executive Director Jon Sawyer spoke at this year's We Media conference in Miami. Jon's session, "Nonprofit World: Endowed Journalism," featured Ellen Miller, Executive Director of the Sunlight Foundation, and was moderated by John Bracken of the MacArthur Foundation.
The session's description: "As commercial journalism evolves, the influence and impact of nonprofit media is expanding. Non-profits are developing new journalistic models; advocacy groups who once relied on journalists are now making the news themselves. How do these changes effect the delivery, dissemination, and our understanding of news? What are the potential risks and benefits?"
