There is NO Substitute for Original Reporting

When it comes to News, credibility, accuracy and dependability are paramount.  There is so much unattributed and bad information floating around in cyberspace.  When we created the Mobile Generated News™ (MoGN) App, we had to make sure that safeguards were in place to make sure the material we are providing to our clients is sourced and true.  We want our clients and consumers of our news product to feel confident that the information that we present can be shared with others and based on fact.  As simple as this may sound, other news services (and competitors) are just aggregating material from other sources.  There is no original “reporting”.  Every story that we post daily on MoGN will be fact checked and we will know the source of the video or still images.

Did you ever play that game in school when a bunch of your classmate’s line up and whisper a story to the first person in line?  And by the time the story reached the end of the line, it was different than the original story started at the front of the line?  This is how I see Content Aggressors on the web.  Although I like the idea of collecting all of the information that I am interested in all in one place, many of these content distributors are merely “cutting and pasting” stories from other (trusted?) sources.

There is no substitute for original reporting.  This is the heart of what we do and how we feel about the information we deliver on MoGN.
