B Square Bulletin’s Dave Askins

Play

He embarked on a new career when he came up with the idea to interview local characters on the opposite end of a see-saw in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Dave Askins and his wife, Mary Morgan, then launched a news and civic service website in that college town. By then, he was hooked on journalism. The couple ended up in another college town, Bloomington, and Dave eventually resurrected his independent news operation here. With the imminent demise of traditional newspapers, Askins’ model may just become the new go-to source for local news here and elsewhere.

[Hosts Michael Glab and Alex Ashkin chat with Bloomington’s most fascinating people.]
