Michigan's Environmental Beat: "Eroding Coverage" [1]
The number of environmental reporters at newspapers and other mainstream media has been decreasing rapidly in recent years, in Michigan and elsewhere.

Now new alternatives -- including student journalism -- are starting to fill the gap.
Lester Graham reports for Michigan's Dome magazine July 18, 2011.
