In this episode, Rebecca talks with Debbie Bowden, publisher and editor of CarolineReview.News, about her “Best Move” of 2025: launching a print-on-demand version of her digital newspaper to better serve her community. Debbie explains how the idea grew out of a simple reader request and evolved into a practical solution for reaching residents without reliable internet access.
They discuss the challenges and opportunities of running a digital-first local news outlet, from building sustainable revenue streams to balancing print and digital formats. Debbie also shares how her background in economic development shapes her approach to local journalism, why community connection drives her work, and how small, strategic innovations can make a big impact for readers.
