Users can be allowed to publish their own news stories, and link to their own or another person s site that links to a full story of the information, therefore driving traffic to that person s website and creating a larger market for sites that research and publish their own news articles and stories, such as CNN or smaller, privately owned websites. Yahoo created the service in hopes that it would drive larger traffic to their site and would give them an advantage over larger online media companies such as Google or MSN , which are Yahoo s largest competitors in terms of search engine s that provide services and web features to its customers.

Democratic journalism is a term describing a relatively new phenomenon where news stories are ranked by a vote among the stories readers ref Baase, Sara. A Gift of Fire Social, Legal, and Ethical Issues for Computing and the Internet. 3. Upper Saddle River Prentice Hall, 2007. Page 351. ISBN 0 13 600848 8. ref . This phenomenon has been brought about largely due to the creation of social networking sites such as Digg and Newsvine . The effect of democratic journalism is that it promotes news based on the popular opinion of the majority, or the wisdom of the crowd . This differs from more traditional approaches, such as the one commonly used in the newspaper industry, where an editor would decide whether to print a particular news story. Some authors look at democratic journalism as taking in rights to free speech, assembly, human rights, the rule of law and other mechanisms to check abuses. It also takes in civic conscionsness and social solidarity. Journalism then has a clear link with democracy, and is shaped accordingly. This would also have different meanings in First, Second and Third World nations. The democratic role of journalism should transcend excessive commercialism, sensationalism, and manipulation by media elites. ref Grave New World? Democratic Journalism Enters the Global Twenty first Century Author Berger G.
