Get paid for generating news |

A news service web site, Streem, is about to be launched that is pitched to 18 to 40 year old Australians. To encourage readers to submit their own writings, Streem is offering contributors cash.
Streem.com.au that is just a few weeks away from launch, will use a combination of professional
and freelance user-generated content to cover a mix of Australian news
and affairs.
A news team will manage the stream of content from
amateur news gatherers. To encourage citizen journalism from readers, Streem is offering contributors cash. If you submit content and they use it, Streem will share a quarter of all
ad revenue generated for that page with you.
"Streem is about raw news, direct from the source,
with the latest media to deliver a highly interactive and mixed content
experience.”
Elgar Welch
Head of Media and Strategy
Streem
Streem is owned by Australian company Scopical. Scopical is an all Australian interactive online
news and media portal. Scopical delivers the latest in National and World
News, Business & Finance, Sport, Politics, Tech/Media and
Entertainment to the
Australian market.
Scopical delivers up to the minute coverage in textual and image media
covering a mix of national and world events, people, times and places.
Scopical takes media from agencies, news wires and bloggers throughout Australia and will be the first major portal to offer a real financial
return on media additions by all users. Scopical's key difference is
its ability to harness user-generated content in news and media
delivery and is the first to fully embrace this increased media form in
up to the minute news coverage.
