The first episode of the Somerville News Garden’s talk show premieres

Welcome to the Somerville Live Wire, a new public affairs TV show produced in partnership with the Somerville Media Center to produce engaging and thoughtful conversations on local issues of the day. In this episode, host Mary Ellen Myhr sits down with Nishant Kishore of the Harvard School of Public Health and Stephen Mackey of the Somerville Chamber of Commerce. Over the course of the discussion, they explore the reopening plan in Somerville and its effect on restaurants and small businesses.

The Boston Institute for Nonprofit Journalism produces bold independent journalism for Greater Boston and beyond.
Since 2015, BINJ has been producing hard-hitting news and analysis focusing on housing, criminal justice, the environment, government malfeasance, corporate corruption—and shedding light wherever it’s needed.

We work with some of the most experienced reporters in Greater Boston, and we also train dozens of emerging journalists each year to help them learn critical skills while providing quality reporting to our audience.

BINJ not only produces important stories; we also share our work for free with other community news outlets around Massachusetts, while organizing and leading at the regional and national levels of the nonprofit news industry.

We collaborate with other community publications and engage the public in civic educational initiatives
