• Wikipedia’s Jimmy Wales creates news service Wikitribune

    His goal is for Wikitribune to offer "factual and neutral" articles that help combat the problem of "fake news".

     

    The service is intended to be both ad-free and free-to-read, so will rely on supporters making regular donations.

    Mr Wales explained that he believed the advertising-based model used by most of the media had led it to "chase clicks", which affected standards.

     

    "I think we’re in a world right now where people are very concerned about making sure we have high quality fact-based information, so I think there will be demand for this," he told the BBC .

     

    "We’re getting people to sign up as monthly supporters and the more monthly supporters we have the more journalists we can hire.
