I like this idea! A lot of the younger people I know (and, realistically, the older ones as well) have only ever gotten their news from Facebook, and MAYBE local news stations (or, more accurately, their official Facebook pages)

Showing people the value of local journalism is great.

This is a great idea, and I wonder what other benefits companies could offer new grads (HS or college) to help launch them into the world.
