This week, Ira spoke with Jon Ralston, CEO of The Nevada Independent, a nonpartisan, nonprofit news and opinion website founded in 2017. In this editorial episode of Ira’s Everything Bagel, Jon talks about why he decided to start The Nevada Independent; his goal of providing in-depth longer daily pieces than the typical newspaper; the reaction of the mainstream media to his new operation; how technology helps covering news without the need of a central headquarters; how his newsroom functions; the culture he built to provide independent journalism; and the state of modern journalism and its future.
