About The Public Press: The San Francisco Public Press
is a new nonprofit local news organization whose aim is to increase the
coverage of important but under-covered news topics through a daily
print newspaper and the Web. The paper will stress government and
private-sector accountability, consumer protection and issues of social
inequality. We are developing a business model unique in the newspaper
world, balancing subscription revenue with public-broadcasting-style
pledges and philanthropy.
About Newsdesk.org: Since 2000, Newsdesk.org
has led commercial mass media with groundbreaking, nonpoliticized
coverage of veterans' health care and PTSD; the 2004 presidential
election and the 2003 San Francisco mayoral runoff; the energy industry
in the developing world; genetically engineered agriculture, and much
more. Newsdesk also is the producer of News You Might Have Missed, a unique source for important but overlooked news from around the world, published every Wednesday since February 2002.
