Introducing Reverb, an MPR News initiative covering younger Minnesotans

MPR News is launching Reverb, an initiative focused on serving younger (and young-at-heart) Minnesotans.

We know Minnesota is changing and younger adults want news in new ways. So we’re delivering news content that centers their perspectives, answers their questions, celebrates them and explores how they’re impacted by issues in a changing world, and all accessible where they are — on mobile, online and on social media.
