NPR will save local investigative journalism, says NPR CEO Vivian Schiller

That's where a big void is happening in journalism now. It's the worst at the local level. I'm worried about locals. It's scary. It happens to be where the biggest crisis in journalism is happening. [Take the L.A. Times as an example.] They shut down their investigative journalism unit. They've closed bureaus all over the world. It's a travesty. We can go market by market. We want to increase the output and platforms on which stations create content in local communities, with a focus on accountability journalism.
--Vivian Schiller CEO of NPR, via newsweek.com
