26 October Edmonton media outlet Taproot is working on an innovative model for paid reporting work

Launched in May, Taproot Edmonton offers one answer to how people living in Alberta’s capital might continue to see their local stories following deep Postmedia cuts earlier this year and the merger of  the newsrooms of the city’s two leading daily newspapers. It also provides a welcome source of freelance employment for journalists in Edmonton, a mid-sized Canadian media market.
