Indiana Gov. Mike Pence Plans To Start A Government-Run ‘News’ Site

If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em.

That may be the thinking of Indiana Gov. Mike Pence (R), who is planning to start a state-run news organization that will offer pre-written articles to smaller news outlets, as well as break stories about his administration, The Indianapolis Star reported on Monday.

Pence is viewed as a possible presidential contender in 2016. Although he is said to be considering jumping into an already crowded field of potential Republican candidates, the governor has not yet made any overt moves, such as hiring staff or reaching out to key supporters in early primary states.
