News agency
A news agency is an organization of journalists established to supply news reports to organizations in the news tradenewspapersmagazines, and radio and television broadcasters. They are also known as wire services or news services. News agencies can be corporations that sell news (e.g. Reuters and Agence France-Presse  (AFP)), cooperatives composed of newspapers that share their articles with each other (e.g. AP), or commercial newswire services which charge organizations to distribute their news (e.g. Market WireBusiness Wire and PR Newswire). Governments may also control news agencies, particularly in authoritarian states, like China (Xinhua). AustraliaBritainCanadaRussia (ITAR-TASS) and many other countries also have government-funded news agencies. A recent rise in internet-based alternative news agencies like Scooplive and Scoopt, as a component of the larger alternative media have emphasized a "non-corporate view," as being largely independent of the pressures of business media.
