"textContent": "If you’re at the Online News Association conference this week, stop by the Newsmast Foundation: they’re building an app platform that allows any newsroom to have a first-class mobile experience that adds a tightly-directed federated community. One of their first partners is The Bristol Cable, a reader-owned newspaper in England that is using their Newsmast community space to grow their membership base and build trust.\n\nNot only will you meet Newsmast founder Michael Foster and Jaz-Michael King (one of the world’s experts in community moderation), but you’ll also be able to pick up a paper copy of my new white paper about building news communities. Go along and say I sent you.\n\nNewsletter subscribers can download the white paper here:\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
