NewsX Communities

NewsX is a place where independent journalism is created and published within NewsX communities of people with common interests. A virtual newsroom breaks down the content production process into stages carried out b< editorial staff trained to do specific roles, each step then passing on to the next, with senior staff training junior team members.

Communities, editors, news items, media partners, experts, influencers and the people that are community members are all linked so relevant stories can be shared, with over 600 subject categories and global geography being just two of eight categories.

We sponsor partners that want to develop news communities, regardless of whether they are looking to increase understanding of a fringe topic or ensure local coverage of a region that has become a news desert.

For advertisers and PR agencies, we ensure everything is looked at through the lens of journalism, providing an independent journalistic review for all content that needs to be shared.

If you have something you care about, set up a community with us to cover it, and we will give you a global window to showcase that community. We will help you build your network, make it self-sustaining, and leave it with you to run after three months, where it will continue to earn NewsX coins that fund that process.

To build or not to build

Whether you have an existing news community with a distribution network that we will welcome into our network or you are starting from scratch, we have a programme for you.

Specialised news teams

The only way communities can share their message is with a professional editorial team, that is independent and with access to a global distribution network. That ensures there is always someone somewhere who wants to publish. NewsX community teams offer that service.

Software does the work

There are almost no journalism professions that have not been automated through the power of software. Apart from journalism. NewsX brings a suite of powerful software that does everything you need except the journalism.

Rebuilding a lost network

Local news media and specialist publications were once the heart of original content for the news media landscape. NewsX rebuilds this network for the benefit of society and the global media landscape.

Sustainable ecosystem

All too many news projects die when the funding runs out. NewsX communities aim to become self-sustaining within three months, with the size of the operation simply changing to reflect the revenue coming in. Content is then generated and distributed at no cost.

Strength in numbers

The more communities rebuild, the more cross pollination we have in sharing ideas with other communities that make everybody better off.

Sophisticated taxonomy

The only way to run a global news exchange is by an automated process of taxonomy generation across what NewsX means eight different categorisation channels. That means we place what you care about where it needs to go to find others who care as well.

Teams work

You are not alone. Everything you need to create your community is available with NewsX. From editorial through to identifying news that will make the international agenda, we have a solution.

Become a believer

We are independent, we believe in what we do and in sharing what you care about with a global audience. We will not accept PR, or marketing or advertising to weaken that message. Support what we do so that we can support what you care about. NewsX. The next generation news network.

To visit some of our current news communities in action

If you wish to sponsor a NewsX community, please specify the subject and / or the geographical region you want to promote with NewsX when you write to us using the contact form.

If you want to build a NewsX community the application will only be accepted from people who have worked in one of newsrooms and qualified for a senior role. NewsX communities need to balance a mixture of experienced professionals to guarantee standards and be well paid for it, and enthusiastic newcomers who want to learn the skills of the trade and also earn a living wage as they train.
