Wikinews: News service with collaborative reporting
WIKIPEDIA HAS proved beyond doubt that rich content can be easily generated through collaborative authoring/editing. Wikimedia Foundation, the mentor of Wikipedia, has recently launched another innovative project that aims to generate a free news source using the concept of collaborative reporting.
A drawback of the current news media is that it fails to look at many news items/issues. Also, they rake up issues and after a while just forget about it — no follow up, no further research.
