I feel like there is a stark divide in media innovation about whether we should invest in local news or new technology. Those ideas aren't mutually exclusive. Like national publications, local orgs can innovate. Where are the product teams?

Could we use blockchain to store facts for journalists? As in, all primary footage, interviews and notes are stored on-chain. Could incentivize objectivity, but there would need to be clear barriers and rules.
