Madison365

Madison365 was founded in 2015 by entrepreneur Henry Sanders, Jr. and journalists Robert Chappell and A. David Dahmer. Dahmer had previously been editor of the African American-centered newspaper The Madison Times.^[1]

In late 2015, Madison365 struck a content-sharing partnership with Channel3000, the online outlet of WISC, the Madison CBS affiliate, allowing greater reach for Madison365's content.^[2]

In 2016, the organization started the Madison365 Academy, the stated aim of which was to train young people of color in journalism.^[3]
