news: Enhancing News Quality Through an Online Vetting Process
Newsvetter is the first Internet news vetting and news delivery service that establishes a "quality" standard for submitting story ideas to the news media. It also provides key tools for people with little or no experience in media relations to identify, build and submit quality news ideas to the media.
The main benefits are: to make sure that news presenters (defined as anyone who wants to share a story idea with the media) have answered key questions about the substance of their news before they send it to the media for consideration; make sure news presenters have answered key questions about a media person's publication and news beat; and make sure news presenters are accountable for the quality of their work.
