First Draft News is a daily destination site for journalists who source and report stories from social media.
What is the best way to search for eyewitness media when a story breaks? What are the most efficient and effective ways to verify what you find? How should you approach and credit social sources? What role can you play in stopping the spread of rumours and hoaxes? How can you do all this while remaining commercially competitive?
These are just some of the questions that the First Draft Coalition was established to address, seeking solutions through dedicated research and collaboration and providing guidance and training for our industry peers in newsrooms around the world.
