We're talking about local news. One thing I find fascinating when I look at my own community is that there are a lot of local pages or groups that form: “I am a Leslievillian!”, “I'm from East York”, “Friends of Withrow Park”. In fact, that is the way that people are now sharing many of their local news stories, completely independent from traditional media.
What do you see among those developments about how people are sharing news? Do you have any stats about the number of pages or what kind of information is being flowed through those types of independent groups?
