Oh, and guys -- you perhaps ought to consider writing for it. :) The HN crowd is very educated, so many of you are the ideal candidates to be writing the news, as you witness it.
- NikkiA 17y agoIt really needs a way to support local and regional news for areas around the world. Johnson Press announced on monday plans (and a trial scheme of 3 local news areas) to paywall all of their local newspaper sites in the UK - this will be a huge loss to the internet, as JP effectively has a monopoly on UK local news - they are the only local news provider for about 80% of the UK. As an example, my local newspaper and regional newspaper are both JP papers, and they are my primary source of local news online, as well as in print.

It was ok - but also not really suited for creating a news outlet with consistent and unbiased content. Is it any better now?
