From Texas Watchdog, an invitation to learn how to investigate quasi-governmental agencies, what we call single purpose local governments:
Hope you can join us for the next Trent TV, a free monthly webinar for journalists, bloggers, citizen-journalists and activists. We’ll be discussing how to look into hospital authorities, sports authorities, and other agencies that are not 100% government like a public works department, but definitely not private corporations. We’ll talk about the types of records these agencies keep and how to peel back the layers of bureaucracy and get a closer look at how they spend taxpayer money.
Join us at 11:30 a.m. CST Tuesday, Nov. 10, at newmediatv.org.
Given the state of journalism, this might be how we find things out in the future.
