Inside The Newsroom Is Moving
Everything you love stays the same, but we're building something bigger and better
Hello and welcome to a special edition of Inside The Newsroom, journalism’s job board.
I have some exciting, yet bittersweet news to share with you today. After seven memorable years on Substack, Inside The Newsroom will be moving to Ghost within the next couple of weeks.
Why the Move?
This isn’t a decision I made lightly. Substack has been a great home for me, for Inside The Newsroom, and, I hope, for each and every one of you. It has been home to some of my biggest podcast interviews, where I went public about the chicanery I faced at my previous employers, and where I got an adrenaline rush each and every time I sent a newsletter.
But as Inside The Newsroom continues to grow, I’ve been thinking about what platform best serves you and this newsletter the best.
With more control over user experience, better customization options, and the ability to create and launch my gargantuan list of new features, Ghost gives us the best pathway to turning Inside The Newsroom into a full-on journalism resources hub. That has always been my vision, and that is why this move is necessary.
What This Means for You
The good news: Nothing really changes from your perspective, and you won’t need to do anything. You’ll still get the same weekly newsletter, the same curated opportunities, the same tools and resources. The content you love isn’t going anywhere.
What will change: A better website experience. Easier navigation. Faster load times. A cleaner archive of past newsletters. And a platform that gives us more room to grow and improve how we serve you.
The Timeline
We’re making the move over the next couple of weeks. I’ll keep you updated as we transition, and I’ll make sure you know exactly when the new site goes live. Your subscription will transfer seamlessly — you won’t need to do anything.
Your Feedback Matters
As we make this transition, I’d love to hear from you. If there are any issues or concerns with our move from Substack to Ghost, or if there’s something you’ve always wanted from Inside The Newsroom that we haven’t yet done, now’s the time to tell me. Please do not hesitate to message me at daniel@insidethenewsroom.com.
This move isn’t just about changing platforms, it’s about building something that serves you better. And I can’t do that without your input.
Thank You
Lastly, thank you for being part of this community. Whether you’ve been here since 2018 or you just joined, your support is what makes Inside The Newsroom possible. I could not be more excited about what’s ahead, and I’m grateful you’re coming along for the journey.
As always, thank you.
Daniel
