I can see it working two ways:
  1. Sponsorship / grant to a journalist (the way you are proposing)
  2. I would also like to see a list of different potential topics that an individual journalist would like to research. Then Stackers could vote/donate to that particular topic. This might help a journalist break a tie on which story next to dive into.
A site could enable both options.

Great feedback! I like idea 2, for individual journalists to make polls on areas they are most interested in.
Idea 1 seems to be most related to solving the problem suggested above. Geyser Grants community voting is tried and tested, check out the ones we did for Bitcoin film fest, where community votes for their favorite projects with sats: https://geyser.fund/grants/6
