Indy to expand coverage
Posted
The news leader of Durham’s Indy Week, a free alternative publication that celebrated its 40th anniversary last year, has said she’ll step aside to focus on expanding the publication’s coverage area to Raleigh.
Editor-in-Chief Jane Porter said in a letter published Aug. 1 that she’ll transition to a new role as a senior reporter and contributing editor dedicated to covering Raleigh and Wake County.
“We think Raleigh and Wake County need and deserve free, extensive politics and government reporting, coverage of growth and development issues, deep looks at housing, education, the environment, and more,” she wrote. “We want to bring the strong daily and enterprise reporting that the Indy is known best for in the Bull City to the City of Oaks.”
