What began as an idea in the 90s to create an A-Z solution for sustainable journalism, from conception to publication and monetisation, is now a working reality. NewsX has grown organically over two decades, experimenting and making a difference with a diverse journalism portfolio.
Our quality news informs, educates, and changes lives and is paid for by selling our entertainment news. As NewsX has been taking shape, we have yet to have sponsors, grants, investors, advertising, PR, or marketing. In short, the only people we answer to are the same ones we have always answered to, our media partners and our editorial team.
NewsX is about a return to the traditional values of journalism, partnered with the potential for modern technology to automate the mundane, leaving the best parts to real people.
- At NewsX, journalism comes before profit. We have cemented that by creating a Community Interest Company (CIC) where the importance of journalism, rather than profit, is enshrined in our mission statement.
 - At NewsX, editorial and advertising are separate, so much so that we have no direct advertising. Instead, we only accept such content if our members want to put it through the lens of journalism.
 - When local news brands and specialist media started to vanish, the grassroots reporting that was the viral news of the next day and the training ground for the new generation of reporters also disappeared. NewsX is starting to rebuild this network as a sustainable community by harnessing passion and expertise.
