News From The States brings expert, on-the-ground state capital reporting from across the country together in one place for the first time.
State policies shape people’s daily lives, and state-level political battles shape the national landscape. But too many state government stories go under-reported or unreported. States Newsroom exists to ensure that people from Oregon to Florida, Arizona to Maine have access to a relentless stream of high quality reporting on their state governments, policies and politics.
The Challenge
News From the States brings together strong daily reporting and commentary from States Newsroom’s affiliates, legacy partners and independent nonprofit content partners. Constantly updated, with curated featured stories and highlighted trends, it illuminates state government across the U.S. like never before.
States News needed a streamlined news website with a content management system that offers maximum control to add a large amount of content in a timely manner, making it accessible, reliable, and responsive to their audiences.
Our Approach
States Newsroom launched their groundbreaking site with design and development work from Vardot, bringing expert reporting from state capitals across the country in one place for the first time.
The platform integrates with 30+ state outlets, allowing for centralized access to articles that can be published and updated within minutes.
Manual content curation and automatic content categorization features are also included for a more refined and easily navigable experience.
