New from EdNC
The Editor’s Notes
In our top articles, you can see that our coverage of what is happening in DC and the impact on NC drove a lot of our pageviews in 2025.
This year, our DC to NC coverage used an approach to journalism that treats news as the first draft of history. In these articles, we consistently identified the responsible leaders, the actions being taken, and the legal authority being cited. We always link to primary sources, even if those links take our readers offsite — which for profit news outlets often can’t afford to do.
“I commend you for your well structured and concise articles about the issues and current events happening within the North Carolina education system. It has been refreshing to read them truly due to the linked attachments to primary sources and supporting articles. I also appreciate the straightforward description of what is happening within the world, which excludes biased perspectives.” — Sabree Flood, North Carolina educator
In addition to readers, that approach matters to Google search and in particular the newer Google Discover, increasing our audience both outside of North Carolina and for this topic.
Thank you for reading.
