A huge thank you to all our supporters! We couldn’t have done this without our communities and those who care about the longevity of journalism.
First, @alexbrizee.bsky.social and Rose Evans won first place for their story of "the chaotic events that began with a report of domestic violence and ended with four bullets" in a water park "among dozens of bystanders" idahostatesman.com/news/local/crime/article305586611.html#storylink=cpy
Thanks to KTVB for covering our strike. This is a warning shot - McClatchy needs to come to the table with a real offer.

Idaho Statesman journalists went on a one-day strike Tuesday, alleging unfair labor practices and bad-faith bargaining from McClatchy Media, our corporate owner.
McClatchy Media still refuses to offer journalists livable wages, despite nearly a year of bargaining. Our unions are ready to strike. Our communities deserve newspapers where talented reporters can afford to stay. But we need your help!⬇️
Newspaper conglomerate McClatchy—the hedge fund-owned publisher that owns local outlets across the country—wants to *aggressively* implement A.I. into its newsrooms, w/proposals that have stunned the union. @nataliekorach.bsky.social has the scoop in @status.news: www.status.news/p/mcclatchy-...
Reporters can do what AI can’t. But McClatchy Media refuses to agree to ethical guidelines on its AI usage. With your support, we can ensure your local news is done by local reporters like these. @idwanewsguilds.bsky.social @idahonewsguild.bsky.social
It's not Spotify Wrapped but here's my end of year recap of my favorite stories written by my colleagues at the @idahostatesman.com
Six months into negotiations, McClatchy Media is continuing to push back against common sense limits on AI in news. If we don't ensure AI ethics are put in place now, it will soon be too late. If reporters don't fight for transparency for our readers, no one will.
Just under a year ago, my colleague Whitney Bryen and I began hearing about women in Idaho prisons being sexually abused by staff. We investigated — and what we've found since has shocked us. Today, the first two stories in our 6(!)-part series were published.
“What makes this even more devastating is that the person responsible for her death is my own father,” the victim’s daughter said in court.
His defense attorney argued that the charge against his client was “unlawful.”

If this is what it looks like it is, then… woof. Good reporting from @isabellabreda.bsky.social and @conradswanson.bsky.social

Idaho has significantly reformed its public defense system since 2022. Now, the state Supreme Court will weigh whether the changes are enough to show the state is meeting its constitutional obligation to provide adequate representation or if it’s too soon to decide. #idleg #idpol
