The New York State Bar Association (NYSBA), the largest voluntary state bar association in the country, announced a groundbreaking initiative to tackle the crisis of local journalism in the digital age and make recommendations on how New York State, the legal and business sectors can protect local news and define the future of local media in not only New York but throughout the country.

NYSBA has established the” Special Committee on Free Expression in the Digital Age” to study the issues surrounding local journalism.
