Let's face it, the mainstream media is facing one of its darkest periods at the moment. A noisy and overwhelming landscape, historical lows in trust, and broken business models have been devastating to investigative journalism and the media’s duty to serve the public.
As a consequence, your options for fact-checked and transparent news have become limited and difficult to find.
That's why we started developing Media Sifter, the fact-based news platform built on the blockchain. A transparent, decentralized network, free from censorship and vested interests. Investigative journalists & the community working together to help you get the whole picture.
More than just a Perspective
The media landscape has become a chaotic scene, with journalists competing for your attention, opinions disguised as facts and agendas veiled thinly.
Media Sifter cuts through the noise, giving you access to relevant content and different perspectives so you can make up your own mind.
More than just the Story
Do you still trust traditional news? Given that you're reading this on Steemit, we'll wager that you don't. If you still do, according to our sources, you're in the minority.
We believe in decentralizing influence, giving power to the community working alongside investigative journalists, to create fact-backed content you won't find anywhere else,
More than just Ad-Free
To be frank, the economics of journalism are broken. Rather than facing facts and adapting, traditional media hopped down the rabbit-hole, enticing you with click-bait and feeding you advertising.
Media Sifter is free from advertising. We advocate media literacy not hidden agendas. So we are developing a self-sustaining economy built on the blockchain. Best of all, just like Steemit, you are rewarded for your contribution.
There is a lot more we'd like to tell you about, but like all good introductions, we want to keep this one short and sweet.
We're convinced that the community here on Steemit believes in the type of platform we are developing. So you will find us here, giving you more details about our plans as well as a weekly publication The SIFT which dissects the news and provides the perspectives you need to make up your own mind.
As you can probably tell by now, we're all about community and hope you will join us! If you believe in what we are trying to do please Upvote or Resteem
