News Plexus to Partner with Journalists on the New News Model

Journalists who recognize the news industry is being destroyed by the ad-funded business model can now lead the transition to the next era in publishing.

News Plexus LLC (NP) wants to partner with reporters to create digital-only teams that focus on local news, while utilizing a new ad-free business model. NP will provide funding, tools, and non-editorial services (IT, web design, marketing, accounting) to get a team quickly up and running, while utilizing Transact, Postd, and Notd for payments and alternative distribution.

We're looking for teams of 4-12 journalists (larger teams are not out of the question, if the covered area is large enough) that want to report on local news where they live. We've created a prototype website at rptd.me that demonstrates the kind of news that would be covered, but ultimately it's up to the local team. Each team would be run independently and locally.

Every team would have its own customized website, accessible by readers with either subscriptions or a la carte purchases of articles. Additionally, individual sections of the news site would be offered for subscriptions on Notd.io, and individual articles viewable on Postd.io.

News Plexus LLC was founded to provide news, information, and entertainment using a new business model that does not rely on advertising revenue, especially from third party platforms. Instead, it focuses on digital-only delivery and funding from readers and local sponsors (not traditional web ads) to create a sustainable system for all forms of journalism.

Journalists interested in being part of this initiative should contact localnews@newsplexus.net
