Gotham Gazette

Gotham Gazette is published each weekday by the Citizens Union Foundation of the City of New York, the non-profit research and education affiliate of a good-government group that dates back to 1897. Gotham Gazette was created through a grant from the Charles Revson Foundation and receives support from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, the Altman Foundation, the Fund for the City of New York, the New York Times Foundation, the Robert Sterling Clark Foundation, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and readers like you. (Please consider making a tax deductible contribution). It functions as four publications in one -- a daily digest of news about New York City; a news operation in itself; a policy magazine; and a reference tool for students and serious researchers alike. Gotham Gazette as a whole attempts to explain all the most important issues facing New York and New Yorkers. But we also have subsites with more specific focus. City Government (formerly Searchlight) is a guide to New York City government and politics. Immigrants (also called The Citizen) is a selection of articles from New York's immigrant/ethnic press, translated into English from some three dozen languages. Our Community Gazettes (also called Community) are a pioneering effort at covering every community in the city, with your help. This year, we also offer Eye on Albany, which looks at efforts to reform state government, and also continues a tradition we began in 2001, a look at this year's races for political office. Gotham Gazette has won many awards, including an Online Journalism Award for General Excellence, given by the Online News Association; the Innovator Award from the Pew Center for Civic Journalism; the Journalism Award from the New York chapter of the American Planning Association; a "Best of Reference" designation as one of the 25 most useful reference resources by the New York Public Library.
