YouTube Launches Reporter's Center

Monday June 29, 2009

Google launched a new channel on YouTube aimed at encouraging average users upload content about current events. This new channel for "citizen reporters" is called the Reporter's Center and shows videos from well-known journalists offering tips and tricks for better news reporting.

Katie Couric talks about what makes a good interview, Dean Wright from Reuters talks about online journalism ethics, and others give advice aimed at average YouTube users who happen to be catching news events on their cell phone.
