What is Coastal Review?
Coastal Review is a daily, online news service covering the North Carolina coast.
Who produces it?
Coastal Review is published by the North Carolina Coastal Federation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to protecting and restoring the North Carolina coast.
THE NEED
Coastal Review launched in February 2012 to fill a growing gap in in-depth reporting on coastal issues as newsrooms across the state reduced their reporting teams. Coastal Review covers important coastal issues not covered by other organizations, and delivers reliable information free of charge to everyone from government and political leaders to remote coastal communities.
THE TEAM
Led by Editor Mark Hibbs and Assistant Editor Jennifer Allen, both veteran journalists formerly with the Carteret County News-Times, and including Staff Writer Trista Talton, Coastal Review also draws on the expertise of experienced reporters and freelancers here on the coast, statewide and beyond to deliver unbiased and objective breaking stories, coastal science news and features on the people, places and culture of the North Carolina coast.
AWARDS
Coastal Review is a recognized leader in coastal news coverage and an accredited member of the North Carolina Press Association. Coastal Review has won more than 100 statewide awards for editorial excellence.
CIRCULATION
Coastal Review stories receive statewide and sometimes worldwide circulation, with top readership in Raleigh, Charlotte, Atlanta, Washington D.C., New York, Virginia, and of course the N.C. coast, including Wilmington, Morehead City, and the Outer Banks.
