First community journalism project is underway. This week, reporters rolled out stories from the neighbourhoods of northwest Winnipeg. The coverage ideas came from residents who attended a town hall in April. Next up: Bridgewater Forest and Valley Gardens. Stay tuned!
#ICYMI This week, meet the neighbourhoods of northwest #Winnipeg and the residents who live there. #OntheMove is a community journalism project that invites residents to shine a light on the stories our local newsroom should tell about their communities.
Who says you can't design a makeshift newsroom pop-up in a pandemic? On the Move is @CBCManitoba #communityjournalism project that explores the booming neighborhoods in Winnipeg. First stop? The neighbourhoods of northwest Winnipeg. Thanks @CBCSamSamson & @caitlyngowriluk 👏 – at Winnipeg, Manitoba
Here’s what I’ve been up to for the past few weeks. Every day this week, we’ll have a story from northwest Winnipeg. Meet the people who love their community. #cbcmb

A couple of things stood out in the article: 1) The Fairness Doctrine dissolved in the US because regulators felt that "over time, the public would weed out [news] providers that proved to be inaccurate, unreliable, one-sided, or incredible."
