If anyone from MacArthur or Knight is tuned in, here’s an idea. Help us get an EZ-Pass for News going. It’s a bootstrap. If there were incentives. If it were seen as a good cause. It could increase the fluidity of news around the country and world by an order of magnitude. That can’t help but increase cash flow through news orgs. But more importantly it give us more access to ideas that don’t come from the NYT et al. Might be a nice way to boost all the local news orgs being supported by the $500 million fund. #
