San Francisco Public Press in Big Print

The San Francisco Public Press, a nonprofit online news organization, is about to launch a pilot print edition. In an era where other newspapers are shrinking in size, the SF Public Press is going big – with 28 full-size broadsheet pages full of news and features – with no paid advertising.

In this week's Media Minutes, SF Public Press Director of Operations Lila LaHood talks about why she thinks print is still important. She also hints at some of the creative ways the paper will be telling the news. The audio and the transcript can be found here.
