BINJ PARTNERS WITH OUTLETS ACROSS THE US FOR COVER STORY ON FENTANYL CRISIS

IMAGE VIA BOULDER WEEKLY

Since publishing “Fentanyl in the Family” about author Ben Westhoff’s dive into the “deadliest wave of the opioid epidemic” via DigBoston and BINJ last month, we have worked with several alternative weekly outlets across the US through the Association of Alternative Newsmedia (AAN) to push the feature further. 

Our team is dedicated to covering the opioid scourge through our F.I.G.H.T. Opiates program, and since these drugs are ripping through communities everywhere, we have been working to disseminate our reporting as far and wide as possible. So far, the outlets listed below have co-published, with some adding graphics and/or sections that highlight particulars about the epidemic in their regions:

Thanks to all of the reporters and editors who have worked with us to get this important piece out there already, and to those who have informed us that they are publishing it in the near future. Also keep an eye out for a video interview that BINJ collaborator and Boston-based filmmaker Johnny Hickey did with Ben Westhoff about his epic new book, Fentanyl, Inc.

Thanks for reading and please consider this:

BINJ not only produces longform investigative stories that it syndicates for free to community news outlets around Massachusetts but also works with dozens of emerging journalists each year to help them learn their trade while providing quality reporting to the public at large.

Now in its 10th year, BINJ has produced hundreds of hard-hitting news articles—many of which have taken critical looks at corporations, government, and major nonprofits, shedding light where it’s needed most.

BINJ punches far above its weight on an undersized budget—managing to remain a player in local news through difficult times for journalism even as it continues to provide leadership at the regional and national levels of the nonprofit news industry.

With your help BINJ can grow to become a more stable operation for the long term and continue to provide Bay State residents more quality journalism for years to come.
