I’m Karen Fatula, a journalist and podcaster focused on hyperlocal, nonpartisan news from Ohio Appalachia — the part of Ohio that too often gets left out of the conversation.
My goal is simple: to provide fair, factual, and balanced reporting that reflects real life in the Ohio Valley and Appalachian counties. Forgotten Ohio tells the stories other outlets overlook — with respect for every perspective and a commitment to truth over politics.
Because your community deserves to be heard!
