Advancing Journalistic Excellence in the Digital Age

Jose Zamora is a Journalism Program Associate at Knight Foundation NPR continues to put in place its digital makeover, which started with a Knight Foundation grant to train its staff on digital media and transform the radio news organization into a digital media organization.

Today NPR launched a new site that allows more public participation and it is easier to navigate than ever before. The new listening, reading, commenting and sharing features are simple and inviting.

The beginning of the editors welcoming note reads: “We hope that you find it brighter, lighter, faster, easier to use, easier to search and more fun to surf.”

Since the beginning of the grant NPR has become more and more a news organization of the web instead than a news organization on the web.
