This entity represents a union of news organizations within New Hampshire. It functions as a cooperative, pooling resources and expertise to investigate and report on issues affecting the state. A practical application of its model involves multiple news outlets simultaneously publishing a series of articles stemming from a shared investigation, increasing the reach and impact of the reporting.
The value of such an organization lies in its ability to tackle complex and resource-intensive projects that individual newsrooms might struggle to undertake alone. Historically, diminished resources across local news landscapes have underscored the necessity for collaborative models. The benefits include enhanced coverage of critical topics, increased public awareness, and a strengthened ability to hold powerful institutions accountable.
