One of our earliest decisions at The Baltimore Banner was to structure ourselves as a nonprofit, focused on delivering quality, trustworthy news that serves our mission. And unlike a hedge fund, we won’t be in it for the money, focused on profits.
The CEO and publisher of The Baltimore Banner shares the rationale behind a new partnership with Your Public Radio (WYPR) and reviews our plans as we gear up for the launch of our news site.
