Wired News: Open Arms for Open-Source News

Daniel Terdiman of Wired News reports on Bakersfield’s The Northwest Voice newspaper giving its readers control of its content through online article posting. “36 percent of the content is photographs, while 13 percent is school news, 11 percent is community events, 7 percent is youth sports and 2 percent is church news. Ten percent of coverage is columns written by locals selected by Fulton for their expertise on things like horses, cars, schools and outdoor life.”
