Bright Light Small City is an independent blog, dedicated to providing education news and analysis from Minneapolis. Although I am always open to suggestions (to a point), being an independent journalist means I have no steady source of financial support for the writing I do here. It makes no economic sense for me to keep this blog afloat (just ask my family members!).

But I believe in it.

What happens to a society fed a diet of rushed, re-purposed, thinly reported “content”? Or “branded content” that is really merchandising–propaganda–posing as journalism?
