The Land is looking for its first managing editor to join a lean leadership team. Working with urgency to meet The Land’s growing demand for quality news, the managing editor will help take The Land’s community-powered journalism to the next level.

The Land recently talked with Ashley Blood, a senior public relations major at Kent State University and an intern with The Land.

The Land is among 20 newsrooms selected to be part of the RFA/LMA Sustainability Lab, a new partnership between Report for America, Local Media Association and Meta Journalism Project to catalyze philanthropic and business model innovation for local newsrooms.

The Land is thrilled to have been accepted into Hearken/Solutions Journalism Network’s Democracy SOS fellowship program, which aims to help newsrooms “experiment with new ways to strengthen democracy by working with and for the communities they serve.”

The Land recently talked with Hannah Davis, a senior journalism major at Kent State University and an intern with The Land and The NewsLab at KSU, about her background, what she hopes to learn by writing for The Land, and her obsession with Tik Tok.

Aja Hannah is a writer, traveler, and mama. Her articles have been featured nationally and internationally in publications like The Progressive, The Independent, and Hawaii Business Magazine.

The Land recently talked with Michael Indriolo, the first recipient of The Land’s Reporting Fellowship for Journalists of Color. Michael has been working with The Land since September and this check-in sheds some light on how the fellowship is going so far.
