A New Vision, Building on a Strong Foundation
As most of you know by now, DCReport has embarked on a new chapter in our evolution. We are now part of the Next Echo Foundation, which is a nonprofit media organization that has published the highly respected online arts magazine, Cultural Daily, for over a decade.
Today, we write to you with gratitude for your ongoing support and readership, and to let you know that we are dedicated to continuing the great tradition of fact-based news gathering that our founders, David Cay Johnston and David Crook, began over six years ago. Although we operated behind the scenes, we are proud to say that we have both been a part of the DCReport team since day one.
What can you expect in 2023? First and foremost, we will be expanding on our nonprofit efforts to report on the facts and thus protect your rights as citizens, consumers, workers, investors, and voters. We also want to be more of a voice for the underserved and the underrepresented – not just in the stories we cover, but also in providing members of those communities the opportunity to tell those stories … as those are the stories we most need to hear. Finally, although we will continue to cover stories at the national level, we will expand our coverage to include local stories. As the late former Speaker of the House, Tip O’Neill, famously said, “All politics is local.” Those words still hold true today.
These changes will not happen overnight, but be assured that we are working hard to make them a reality and that we would value your help in doing so. Your input is important, so we will soon send out a survey asking for your suggestions and feedback.
We hope you will continue to enjoy DCReport and help us to expand its audience. We are so excited about what the future holds and we would be so honored to have you along for the ride.
Best regards,

P.S. If you have the means to donate, please consider doing so today. Our first priority is to raise the funds required to subscribe to a news gathering service, such as the Associated Press or Reuters. This will give us access to much needed resources, such as photos and videos that empower our nonprofit news storytelling.
