Whenever we gather with a group of publishing industry professionals, no matter the focus of the conversation, we hear the same question come up over and over again: what news sources do you read to stay up to date with the industry?
Most people have one or two sources they turn to daily, and rely on their networks on platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook to fill in the rest. As a part of our efforts to connect and educate the publishing community, we wanted to aggregate a list of great resources once and for all.
That’s why, as part of our 2019 Storyteller Survey, we asked respondents to share their favorite industry news sources with us. We received responses from publishing industry leaders from companies like Bloomberg, Dow Jones, HarperCollins, Crain Communications, NerdWallet, Chive Media Group, Oath, and more.

About Keywee
At Keywee, we make stories relevant and powerful for the world’s best storytellers — like The New York Times, The BBC, National Geographic, Forbes, and Red Bull.
Today, people aren’t coming to websites to search for content — stories find their audiences in feeds and apps. The upshot? Distribution is now the key for effective storytelling. Keywee’s platform unlocks audience insights using AI and data science, and infuses them into every step of the storytelling process: from topic selection, to story creation, to distribution and optimization. Keywee is backed by leading investors such as Google’s Eric Schmidt and The New York Times, and has been a fast-growing, profitable startup since its inception. To learn more, request a demo here.
