Please consider the Sentinel for Giving Tuesday. Did you know?

The latest in our "Centering Community Voices" series of how newsrooms are using source tracking to improve everything from editorial workflows and story development to community outreach and fundraising. This week, I wrote about how some newsrooms are using American Press Institute's Source Matters tool to help them think about the voices missing from their coverage and using that information to better engage with their community.

As diverse melting pots, urban areas provide many stories that are perceived to have broader appeal, inadvertently sidelining rural narratives, often deemed less newsworthy in the context of national interests.
