DigitalJournal.com is a community-based news website covering breaking news stories.
Stories are posted by staff writers and members, who are encouraged to comment on and rate other members' stories and comments. It is similar to social bookmarking sites such as Digg or reddit, while including a revenue-sharing model wherby members compete to earn money based on the frequency and rating of their posts and comments.[http://toronto.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local/CTVNews/20061105/webmania_061112?hub=TorontoHome]
DigitalJournal.com uses a portion of its revenue to pay members to contribute stories, comments and video posts. As of October 2007, the site was offering a shared cash pool of $2,000.[http://www.digitaljournal.com/info/type/user/bloggers]
Digital Journal has grown to become a well-known citizen journalist news hub. The site offers a different approach to citizen journalism by being a content producer rather than link site such as Newsvine or Digg. Its closest competitor is NowPublic, but users of the site distinguish it because it pays citizen journalists and the community involvement is much higher.
