Community Media SitesJournalists who lost their jobs when their local newspaper stopped its presses have taken it upon themselves to fill the vacuum of local coverage that was left behind. Here is a listing of some new online ventures started by former print journalists to provide local news for their communities. |

I should think Noozhawk qualifies for this list. Launched in Santa Barbara in October 2007, we count among our professional staff former newspaper sales executives, in addition to journalists.
The Lake County News (http://www.lakeconews.com) in Lakeport, Calif., is another such site.
