Thomson Reuters Corp has launched a news service for U.S. publishers and broadcasters in a bid to win business from the Associated Press and CNN. The new service, Reuters America, provides text
stories, photos and video by Reuters journalists for newspapers, television stations and online publishers. Newspaper publisher and broadcaster Tribune Co, publisher of the
Los Angeles Times
and
Chicago Tribune, is its first customer.
As part of the service, Reuters America also will offer sports and entertainment news from six partners: the Wrap, SportsDirect Inc,
the Sports Xchange, US Presswire, SB Nation and Examiner.com. Reuters is hiring journalists and using stringers to provide general news stories in addition to its business and financial news. It also
