LocalBrief publishes clear, factual local news briefs for cities in the United States. Today that means two newsrooms: LocalBrief Chattanooga (Tennessee) and LocalBrief Asheville (North Carolina).
What we cover
The decisions of local government, public safety, the local economy, community events, and practical guides that help residents navigate their city. We report facts plainly, in plain language, and we verify against primary sources before we publish.
Who publishes LocalBrief
LocalBrief is a publication of Pub.cat, a Barcelona-based media company that builds AI-assisted local and specialist news titles.
How our content is produced
LocalBrief is produced by an AI-assisted newsroom with human editorial oversight. Our bylines are clearly labelled AI collaborators, not humans, and we are transparent about how this works: see our AI and Automation Policy, Editorial Policy and Corrections Policy.
