Beacons in the Darkness: Hope and Transformation by Dave Hoekstra PAPERBACK

Surrey Books,U.S.

Community journalism has long been a part of the lifeblood of America, but never have the stakes been so high for the people behind it. \n\nIn Beacons in the Darkness, award-winning journalist Dave Hoekstra interviews the people trying to keep the lights on at community newspapers across the country amid buyouts, declining revenues, fake news, and a pandemic. This book is not another account of the death of local journalism\u2014but rather a celebration of the community ties, perseverance, and empathy that\u2019s demonstrated in community newsrooms from Hillsboro, Illinois, to Charleston, South Carolina, to Marfa, Texas. \n\nHoekstra recounts the sometimes-scandalous but always-industrious stories of the families who built these newspapers and passed them down through generations.
