As I posted on the duplicate thread...The Texas Tribune is a front for progressive activism.

It's a "charity" 501 c3, and it's donors include Goldmans-Sachs and Soros Open society.

Please, TX freepers, keep an eye on this publication.

2005 Houston Chronicle article: Gov Perry---advocate for affordable housing---- earns kudos in "lending law reform."

Perry endorsed 2008 prez candidate Rudy Giuliani (an ex-Dem).

Knowing several of the reporters who have gone to work for the Tribune, I think your concerns are overblown. They've found a new model for media (i.e., they're a non-profit, not a charity), and they're not taking government funds. At some point, if other media outlets, specifically newspapers are going to survive, they're going to have to adopt this model, because the Dallas Morning News certainly isn't going to survive with a $37 paywall.
