About
Company Description: The Springfield MSA's fastest growing, by local, for local news outlet.
The Springfield Daily Citizen is a nonprofit, independent, online news outlet in Springfield, Missouri. We are powered by a small, hard-working team united by the common goal of bringing to our readers unbiased coverage of the local news that affects each of us. We believe good journalism brings issues to light, but great journalism brings communities together.
A key commitment is regular in-depth reports that delve into issues people care most about. This includes a broad range of subjects — the economy, education, government, health, recreation, arts and culture — and other topics identified through local efforts such as the biennial Community Focus Report for Springfield and Greene County.
The 2021 Focus Report cited concerns about the decline of locally-owned media in our community, and the negative impact of misinformation and divisive discourse. Unlike traditional for-profit media, which are cutting staff, coverage and publication schedules, we can report the stories our community wants to read, without artificial budget constraints driven by corporate interests. (The 2023 Focus Report update mentions the work of the Daily Citizen to respond to community needs, and the 2024 report mentions the continued work of journalists to track challenges and successes.)
The Daily Citizen works for the community. It is run by local people and supported by local people and organizations. Our journalists are committed to telling the community’s stories in a nonpartisan, factual manner.
Our mission
The mission of the Springfield Daily Citizen is to inform our community and be a catalyst for good.
Our vision
The vision of the Springfield Daily Citizen is to reinvent local news in Metro Springfield by telling the stories of our community, bringing issues to light, encouraging discourse and inspiring citizens to vote and take action.
