The Institute for Nonprofit News (INN) is a non-profit consortium of journalism organizations. The organization promotes nonprofit investigative and public service journalism through its association of member entities. ==History== INN was founded in 2009 at a summer conference held at the Pocantico Center in New York, funded by the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, the Surdna Foundation and the William Penn Foundation and organized by the Center for Public Integrity and the Center for Investigative Reporting. The result of that conference was the Pocantico Declaration,〔(Pocantico Declaration ) 1 July 2009.〕 which begins: :"Resolved, that we, representatives of nonprofit news organizations, gather at a time when investigative reporting, so crucial to a functioning democracy, is under threat. There is an urgent need to nourish and sustain the emerging investigative journalism ecosystem to better serve the public." INN〔(INN )〕 was granted 501(c)(3) non-profit status by the IRS in March 2012, 19 months after applying.〔("Investigative News Network gets IRS nonprofit status" ) ''Poynter.'' 20 March 2012.〕 As of April 2014, INN had more than 100 members. The nonprofit members are part of a growing movement in news media to provide watchdog journalism that is not covered in mainstream media.〔(Disruptive News Technologies: Stakeholder Media and the Future of Watchdog Journalism Business Models ) 31 March 2010.〕〔(The future of investigative journalism ) 14 April 2010.〕〔(Growing Boom in Non-profit Investigative Journalism ) 13 March 2013.〕 INN operating and project budgets are underwritten through a combination of grants from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, Rockefeller Brothers Fund, Open Society Foundations, Ethics and Excellence in Journalism Foundation and other charitable foundations.〔(Investigative News Network Funders ) 22 February 2013.〕 In November 2014, the board of INN met to conduct a strategic review of the organization. During that meeting the board decided to refine the organization's and to change its name to the Institute for Nonprofit News. In March 2015, the board voted to terminate the organization's first and only CEO, Kevin Davis, and appoint data reporter Denise Malan as the interim CEO while a search was conducted to find a permanent replacement. 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「Institute for Nonprofit News」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
