Knight Foundation

A new study from Knight Foundation and explores how residents and business owners in Charlotte’s Historic West End access — and trust — local news and information.

The study highlights the mix of news sources and community connections that shape how information moves across the neighborhood. Only 28% say they’re getting all the local news and information that matters to them, pointing to gaps in the current ecosystem.

Trust plays a central role. Neighbors, churches and community organizations shape how information flows and where people turn for information. Investing in these trusted networks helps keep communities informed, connected and engaged.
