German Netzeitung Goes »2.0«
Using the bold headline »20 million editors wanted!«, the German online-only newspaper Netzeitung launched their plans for a so-called »Reader's Edition.« There, readers-turned-into-writers will soon deliver their reports, views, stories and photos from all over the world — and might perfectly complement Netzeitung's hardly existing own network of news correspondents, as medienrauschen speculates somewhat smugly.

This sounds quite interesting but how reliable are the writers? Is there any censorship and does anybody check whether the posted news stories are made up?
By the way.. do you know a website that provides info on how many ppl are reading or watching news regularly??
Quality is a major concern, no doubt about that. I guess it could work if they are capable to build up a wikipedia-like community. We probably have to wait whether or not such experiments fail in the end. As for your news related question: some data can be found here and here.
