New: I wrote about the Lexington Observer, a local outlet with two employees that has made most of its money as a financial intermediary for other news orgs. Its leaders are now debating whether to continue the service, which I haven't seen any other outlet adopt. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/05/15/b...
While the “Local News Hub” program has helped the Observer pay for its own local reporting, some of its leaders are questioning whether it should continue.
