ReportingOn is a Knight News Challenge winner.
Welcome to the backchannel for your beat.
ReportingOn will improve local news by giving reporters access to people they don't talk to often enough: each other. Given the opportunity to share ideas with peers on the same beat, journalists can add context to stories and find out when a seemingly small piece of local news is part of a larger trend. This is the place to talk to the expert in the next cubicle, even if it happens to be three towns over — or across a continent.
