Balance Interactive to Redesign Website for Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press

July 14, 2011 - PRLog -- Balance Interactive will develop a new Drupal-based website for the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press (RCFP).

Balance developers will implement the Drupal content management system to ensure ease of site management and use. The redesign will include efforts in web strategy, content, information architecture and interactive design. The new website will continue to be an essential media law resource for journalists, lawyers, funders and other key audiences.

For more than forty years, the RCFP has played a role in nearly every significant press freedom case that has come before the U.S. Supreme Court. The organization is a major resource for free speech issues, disseminating information in a variety of forms, including its website and social media, a quarterly legal review, a weekly newsletter, and various handbooks and guides. It also maintains a 24-hour telephone and online hotline for journalists. The Reporters Committee website redesign is funded in part by contributions from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and the Dow Jones Foundation.
