Open source journalism

February 6, 2020

We recently started a discussion on stream on what open source journalism might look like for as us developers. We also discussed some implications and use cases for both readers and journalists. Here's a quick breakdown of our initial chat on 2/6/2020.

I plan on editing this post as we continue to grow this idea as a community. If you have any feedback or would like to follow along join the stream Tuesdays and Thursdays 10am-4pm.

Initial punch list (Last edited 2/6/2020)

☐ Source an origin
    Content from same location or time stamps
☐ Allowing people to submit sources, articles already posted online
    ☐ Archiving original posts + revisions
☐ Determine mood and sentiment from comments
☐ Source similar or related information  
☐ Read more on what problems journalist currently face
☐ Tech stack
☐ Goals/Priorities 

Sorry for the poor formatting. This theme needs some serious attention, just hasn't been a priority. Will begin fixing in the coming weeks.
