Proud Co-sponsor of the Miami International Film Festival

Knight Foundation is proud to be a longtime supporter of the Miami International Film Festival and of sponsoring the grand jury prizes for the event, which is produced and presented by Miami Dade College.

We are also excited to co-sponsor the screening of PAGE ONE: A YEAR INSIDE THE NEW YORK TIMES.

Knight Foundation was founded by Jack and Jim Knight, who created what once was the nation’s largest newspaper chain and included the Miami Herald.

This film brings that challenge into focus, by following the New York Times newsroom during a time of massive change in the industry.

The director Andrew Rossi said he hoped the film would start a conversation… about how investigative journalism and objective news reporting can be economically viable in today’s world.

At Knight Foundation, we’re agnostic about the medium. But we are passionate about preserving journalism and the fair, accurate, contextual search for truth.

Over the past four years, Knight Foundation has invested more than $100 million in a Media Innovation Initiative, to ‘ among other things ‘ experiment with new media models for journalism. So far, our funding has helped launch more than 100 community news experiments.

The future of accountability journalism is an important question for everyone who cares about the future of our democracy.
