Thanks to Oberlin College for writing about Newsreel and our Kickstarter campaign 🚀 Two of Newsreel's founders, Jack Brewster and Justin Cruz, graduated from Oberlin. "In a world where information overload leads to news avoidance, we aim to make staying informed easier and more engaging for the younger generation," said Brewster, who has worked as a politics reporter for Forbes, and written for Time, The Wall Street Journal, Vice, Newsweek, and Fortune. https://lnkd.in/ghpzm4w8

#Holdontoyourbutts As a entrepreneur that started my career with The Synapse Magazine, I couldn’t be more proud of another founder from Oberlin College launching a highly relevant company providing just what we all need in our hectic lives - straight talk on the topics that matter. Oh and you want hot takes? Hold onto your butts - these are hot hot hot takes! Got $5 bucks to support a new founder fighting the good fight? Here’s your opportunity! We. Need. More. Journalists.
