OpenGlobe: Difference between revisions

This model gives us an advantage over existing citizen journalism websites, many of which function as [[:Category:Blog|blogs]] or hyperlocal sources that don't provide a comprehensive outlook on the {{tag|global}} situation. OpenGlobe's contributors - all of whom volunteer their time to write for the project - come from all over the [[:Category:Earth|world]], including {{tag|North America}}, {{tag|Europe}}, and {{tag|Australasia and Oceania|Oceania}}, ensuring a truly global viewpoint on the news.

OpenGlobe also strives to develop a team of informed reporters and writers who are dedicated to covering the news on a regular basis. By increasing participation in the media - by putting the pen in regular people's hands, rather than the hands of multinational corporations - OpenGlobe hopes to build a global community of knowledgeable, empowered citizens who are committed to free information and neutral media.

<br> OpenGlobe is a {{tag|Non-profit|not-for-profit}} organisation. We have no incentive to promote any [[:Category:Point of view|point of view]]; our goal is to make {{tag|knowledge}} freely available and help people think for themselves, rather than telling them what to think. OpenGlobe helps to ensure that the internet and online news remain free.

To this end, we do not accept editorials, press releases, unsubstantiated rumours, or articles heavily promoting any opinion. If you wish to advertise or share your point of view with the world, consider setting up a blog; there are many other services that will better serve your needs.
