News organizations in Chelan, Cowlitz, Grant, San Juan, Spokane and Stevens counties will host a local journalist in the newly restructured WSU Murrow Fellows/Report for Washington program starting in January, with reporter applications accepted through Aug. 30. This partnership between WSU and Report for America aims to strengthen local journalism statewide by placing reporters in communities for two to three years and by providing sustainability support to local news organizations. More newsrooms will be selected this autumn, with those reporters starting in July 2027. More reporters will be hired in 2028 and 2029 to ensure strong civic reporting in all 39 Washington counties.
