Its twist is that it encourages and enables anyone to be a reporter and uses an in-house system to rate would-be journalists on popularity and credibility.
Content is based upon a credibility definition
Allvoices, which is operating on $4.5 million in funding from Vantage Point Venture Partners, has started paying its most popular reporters. They can earn anywhere from 25 cents to $2 per thousand page views.
Contributors are free to post almost anything. Credibility is rated by people who read postings and by the in-house algorithm, which is designed to help measure postings against traditional media and other sources.
