States Newsroom launches site for state capital news

States Newsroom, the nation’s leading network of state-based nonprofit news outlets, will be launching News from the States, a comprehensive source for statehouse news across the country.

The organization plans to expand to newsrooms in approximately 40 states with content sharing agreements in the remaining states over the next two and a half years.

“It’s time to stop treating news as just a business and start to treat it also as a public service, a public good,” said Chris Fitzsimon, director and publisher of States Newsroom. “That’s how we’ve thought of States Newsroom since we began in 2017. We’re proud to have newsrooms in 25 states and counting, as well as a Washington, D.C. bureau.”
