Better Relationships Make Better Stories.

North Exchange is a growing North Media initiative connecting sources who bring credible expertise with journalists, for ongoing, substantive conversations.

What has not changed is the need for credible sources, trusted relationships and substantive conversations across all channels.

Newsrooms have changed. Beats have consolidated, traditional source-building opportunities have diminished, and independent journalism, podcasts, newsletters and specialized verticals have created new places where important stories are told.

North Exchange brings together the people telling the stories with the people who understand the issues, creating stronger relationships, better context, and opportunities for the right stories to happen at the right time, in the right places.

For Journalists

Access the experts who know the story.

  • Credible experts and sources

  • Industry and issue context
  • Help getting up to speed on a new beat or complicated subject
  • Connections beyond the obvious sources
  • Curated conversations and small-group opportunities

There is no cost to journalists to participate in North Exchange or access North's source connections. Journalist participation is never conditioned on coverage.
