NWZER

You are the Journalist - What if Reddit, Twitter and Wikipedia had a baby? By giving the power of creation and publication back to the news creators and consumer, we restore journalism's goals and values, giving back 'power to the people'. An advertisement-driven, quantity-driven broken model that omits prosumer participation, fighting for our attention, feeding people what they want to hear, not what they need to hear. Fake news, biased information and sensationalism are a direct result of the... attention-based model, and prevail the industry. Misinformation and emotion-based decision making steers the general population. This is a problem for us personally, as well as for society as a whole. We live in an era where we have more power to take measures in our own hands than we’ve had ever before. We want to challenge the existing, opinionated, traditional media model. Just as what Airbnb and Uber did to their industries, nwzer wants to disrupt the news industry. We believe that together, we can build the first user-generated news agency.More
