Citizen media in Northfield

Today’s Star Tribune South section has a piece on me and my Locally Grown colleagues.

They’re not citizen journalists so much as “three citizens shooting our mouths off,” Wigley said.

Swearing and faux news happen on Locally Grown, and the co-hosts rarely miss a chance to make fun of their own work, or each other.

Still, civility is a byword. Locally Grown and Northfield.org, for which Wigley was chief contributor for years, have reputations as debate venues free of the bile and bad feelings inevitable in most communities as politically active as Northfield.
