Once touted as the future of journalism, especially investigative journalism, it now has both successes and failures to report, Jodi Enda writes in American Journalism Review. For every well-funded operation like ProPublica, there is a failure like the Chicago News Cooperative, and even more hanging on forf dear life: "It is too soon to tell whether nonprofits are the key to journalism's future. If they are not, perhaps they will serve as a bridge until we get there."
