What is The Philadelphia Independent Media Coalition? It is an informal group of independent local news organizations working together to promote news memberships as a way to fund community journalism. We are working across our newsrooms to encourage more independent reporting from more voices in Philadelphia.
Who is organizing this? The Coalition is being organized by Technically Media, the publisher of local tech news network Technical.ly and social impact site Generocity.org.
How is this funded? This project came together with support from the Lenfest Institute. Learn more here.
What is the goal? We believe more Philadelphians should directly financially support the independent news organizations that do work here. One way to do that is through individual memberships. Our goal is expose more Philadelphians to that possibility.
