Newzulu is a crowd-sourced media company whose app allows “anybody, anywhere, with a mobile device and a story, to share news, get published and get paid”.

Headquartered in New York, Newzulu is a global news platform through partnerships with international news services and stock photo agencies.

According to Newzulu, their news platform boasts over 100,000 professional and citizen journalists. This community publishes video, photos and articles. Topics range from news, lifestyle, weather, celebrities, sports and entertainment.

Newzulu employs a team of editors to vet these submissions. Vetted submissions are marketed globally through Newzulu Wire or one of its affiliate partners and licensed to newspapers, websites and magazines.  Royalties, minus Newzulu’s fee, are paid to the content creator.

In looking at a week’s worth of stories, it is interesting to see how the world at large prioritizes what is “front page”. It is also interesting to see how the United States is viewed by the outside world, particularly in this election year.
