Fort Worth Report (FWR) is a nonprofit news media outlet covering local government, business, education and arts in the city of Fort Worth, Texas. The organization, founded by local business leaders and former Fort Worth Star-Telegram publisher Wes Turner,[1] announced its intentions in February 2021 and officially launched the newsroom in April 2021.[2][3] Since its launch in response to declines and cuts at other local news organizations,[4] FWR has added staff and expanded to provide radio news content through a collaboration with KERA News.[5]
The founding publisher and CEO is Chris Cobler, who previously led the Victoria Advocate and was slated to become managing editor of Poynter Online, a position he did not occupy due to attribution errors in news articles published under his leadership at The Greeley Tribune.[6]
