GroundReport.com
GroundReport.com is an open news portal that enables professional and citizen journalists to participate in the news media by publishing multimedia reports to a global audience. On GroundReport's user-powered platform, community members instantly post content, rate reports, build a personalized newsfeed based on geography and interests, create a free hosted press portfolio and earn a share of the website's advertising revenues. GroundReport provides an international, democratically run news source independent of mainstream institutions and government influence. Web-based participatory content models have great potential for benefiting the public sector, but are vastly underused. GroundReport applies internet technologies in a civil sector context by supporting freedom of expression, centralizing user-generated reporting and decentralizing editorial control.
Presently, GroundReport is launching GroundReport TV, the world's first streaming citizen journalism news channel.
