This week’s “Statehouse preview” cover story by Amanda Vinicky comes to you by way of Illinois Issues, the 40-year-old public affairs magazine published by University of Illinois Springfield. Since the magazine ceased print publication last summer, Issues has continued publication online, strengthened by its merger with WUIS-NPR Illinois. Together the magazine writers and radio reporters make a formidable multi-platform team that keeps the tradition of longform in-depth journalism alive at wuis.org/NPR Illinois. Go to the website to sign up for email alerts of weekly Illinois Issues in-depth reports, as well as other NPR Illinois programs, podcasts and blogs. Illinois Times looks forward to future opportunities to partner with the strong news organization the university has assembled. –Fletcher Farrar, editor and publisher
