NOTUS rebrands as The Star to expand Washington D.C. local news and sports coverage

nytimes.com [$]

Washington political news outlet NOTUS will rebrand as The Star in early June, expanding local news and sports coverage. The rebranding follows significant layoffs at The Washington Post, creating a perceived void in local reporting that NOTUS aims to fill. The publication, founded in 2023, will significantly increase its staff and coverage areas. NOTUS was established with a $20 million grant and aims to cover both political and general Washington news, a strategy accelerated by The Post's recent cutbacks.
