( 6 ) Going Local
In many parts of the U.S. recently, websites that specialize in providing local news have become popular. These are known as hyper-local websites. As well as news, these websites
provide information about local events and include advertising and listings for businesses in the area.
Hyper-local websites employ journalists, but also depend heavily on local residents to upload material such as photos, maps, and information about their area. They also allow readers to design and place their own ads online. Such localparticipation provides content not offered by national news websites.
The number of people who access hyper-local websites is growing rapidly. One reason is that the sites help readers decide which events to attend and which businesses to use in their local area. This is impossible with national news websites, which focus on national and international news and events.
