The idea of a market for citizen journalism has been around since the early 80s.
Maybe this time it'll do better than some of the earlier attempts.
Looking at other examples of citizen writing/editing, I'd say it will be a race to the bottom: staged and doctored videos and pictures, companies and organizations staging stories instead of PR releases, etc.
But it's definitely a feel-good kinda biz and story.
