Newsjunkie.net is a resource guide for journalists. We show who's behind the news, and provide tools to help navigate the modern business of information.
Use of DataReport for the World launched by the Ground Truth Initiative in 2021 as a nonprofit website resource connecting journalists and newsrooms with under-reported issues around the world. Report for the World was co-founded by Charles Sennott and Kevin Grant, both active with the Ground Truth Initiative. This organization works with newsrooms in various countries including Afghanistan, Brazil, El Salvador, Hungary, India, Kenya, Lebanon, Mexico, Myanmar, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, Russia, South Africa, Syria, Ukraine, United States, and Zimbabwe.
On their website, their stated goal is:
"The voices of people most affected by decisions made by the powerful are left out. Misinformation spreads quickly and critical stories go untold."
