Editor’s Note: One Of Those Weeks

Literally just a minor update for regular readers

Well, I was under the weather for a couple of days this week—badly enough to throw off my busy work schedule. Which left me little extra time to write anything substantial. So, no grand pronouncements from me this time out.

But folks should be aware that I’ve been keeping a watchful eye on the same geopolitical developments everyone else has been and I imagine I’ll be addressing some of them from a Massachusetts standpoint soon enough.

For now, however, I’m just focusing on getting this week’s BINJ newsletter out and continuing to get back in fighting trim. More commentary and analysis coming soon.


Jason Pramas is executive director of the Boston Institute for Nonprofit Journalism and editor-in-chief of BINJ.News.

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
