YouTube creates channel for reporters

June 9th, 2008 Posted by Laura Oliver in Online Journalism

Following the launch of its citizen news channel, YouTube has added a section for reporters.

Professional and amateur journalists are encouraged to upload under the new channel, whether this be breaking news footage, footage from student journalists, citizens reporting on news events or professional journalists looking to create an online portfolio of their video work.

Users, who select the reporter channel in their account settings, will have their content scoured by YouTube, as part of the site’s drive to highlight news content, a post on the site’s official blog said.
