Great app if you take good pics or steady video. You help get the news out in your area & if your lucky a news source will purchase your pics or video. I have noticed they seem to lean to the left because most of the news they report on their main site is pro Democrat & negative towards Trump & Republicans.As a news source it should be unbiased in my opinion.
So far both assignments had vague addresses and could not be verified. The first one said a fire at the airport terminal 4 so I drove there and paid for parking, asked around to airport employees who said hadn't heard anything. I drove the perimeter looking for any sign of emergency vehicles and found nothing. Then today they reported a house fire with an approximate address. I drove 3 blocks in all directions looking for any sign of damage, and again found nothing. Bummed.
Continues to impress me with all the active events around the world. Love using this app for news.
I get updates of the day's events, but not sure about other features and functions offered in the app.
It's actually amazing to see my iPhone shot videos on my local tv news station!! It's as if I have a massive voice in my community. The money is great too. Got $200 straight to my bank account..almost like Venmo!
