8000

8000 is the postal code of the city of Bahía Blanca (Buenos Aires) and is also the name of this medium dedicated 100% to it and with its own brand: #OrgulloBahiense. It emerged in 2020, in the middle of the pandemic, as an initiative of a group of Bahian journalists with experiences in traditional local, national and international media. The minimum viable product was a newsletter that goes out from Monday to Friday and summarizes what is happening in the city to get information in 5 minutes, broad, independent and interesting way. On Saturdays, special content is sent, exclusively for subscribers: among them, the series of portraits #SeresBahienses, The audio of #OrgulloBahiense and #Bahiensidades, with great stories about the city. They also often organize public events with the audience. In 2021, he was selected for the Amuna Digital program, the SembraMedia and Meta initiative to support independent journalism in Argentina. In 2022 they received funds from ADEPA and Meta en Impulso Local.
