State-level political video — looking for journalist input on a new platform

Hi r/journalism,

I'm building a platform called Aebly Media — short-form video news, one anchor per state. The thesis is that 80 million Americans don't vote because nobody covers state politics in a format they'll actually watch. Working on it from the ground up, not a legacy media spinoff.

I'd really value honest input from people in this sub:

• Where does this go wrong? Editorial integrity questions, comp issues, etc.
• Anyone here laid off in the last two years interested in talking about state-level coverage in a different format?

Hosting a Zoom May 14 for serious folks. Small group on purpose. Link in comments if interested.
