A group of seasoned professional journalists, led by former Minneapolis StarTribune editor and publisher Joel Kramer, today formally announced the MinnPost.com, a nonprofit daily modeled after voiceofsandiego.org.

It is the second such publication to use voiceofsandiego.org as a model. A group of former St. Louis Post-Dispatch staffers, who will be launching the St. Louis Platform this fall, consulted extensively with voiceofsandiego.org as it constructed its plan.

The New York Times quoted our own Scott Lewis in an article about Kramer’s announcement. That marks the second time our dear Lewis has been quoted in the Gray Lady in his short but illustrious career.
