Newsy.com, a new online video news service, is launching in partnership with the Missouri School of Journalism. The site, founded by Jim Spencer, a founding vice president of Ask.com, compares news
sources and provides daily multi-perspective views of the world's news coverage. The site produces two- to-three-minute video snapshots noting how world news organizations report stories. Rotating
editorial teams analyze each day's news by monitoring television, blogs, newspapers, magazines and the Internet. Alongside news pro, MU journalism students research, write and edit stories.
