A friend and I had a long discussion about possible models for local investigative journalism online.
The best we could come up with was something along the lines of a modified subscription plan with a low yearly rate (n < $40 usd) funding automated collections of government data with a very small cadre of reporters writing stories and editing each other.

Either that or beg-a-thons like public radio.
