The cooperative had been funded primarily by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation. The Chicago News Cooperative operated out of the offices of WTTW-TV in Chicago.〔 In February 2012 it was reported that ''The New York Times'' would stop carrying the cooperative's content on February 26, and the cooperative would shut down its website soon thereafter, after the ''Times'' declined the cooperative's request for additional funding.〔Michael Miner, ("CNC shutting down" ), ''Chicago Reader'', February 17, 2012.〕〔Stephanie Banchero and Douglas Belkin, ("Chicago News Cooperative to Halt Operations" ), ''The Wall Street Journal'', February 17, 2012.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chicago News Cooperative」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
