Welcome to Britain's first dedicated citizen journalism news portal. I’m Deborah Hobson, deputy editor of The-Latest.Com. It's my job to look after contributors, so if you would like to become one of them please contact me: contribsed@the-latest.com.
The-Latest was founded by Marc Wadsworth, who is the editor.
It offers exciting opportunities to blog, be involved in video streaming, podcasts and many other activities. We have constantly updated national and international Latest Headlines and instant polls on topical subjects.
Our wide-ranging text and image content, provided by member contributors, includes on entertainment, music, world, general, politics and community news, interviews, So surprising, Funny and Did you know? categories. We provide alternative news not available to you in the big media.
And helpful events listings, as well as book and entertainment reviews. Details of events can be sent to us for inclusion on the site. You can upload music and other audio.
Members can take part in forum discussions and comment on stories. Our Image Galleries allow members to upload interesting pictures or even showcase photos in their own personalised gallery.
Novice members are supported by professional journalists who edit the content and provide portfolio-standard published material for the contributors, many of whom have never before had this sort of creative opportunity. Our members have gone on to work for a variety of news media organisations.
Feel free to put your news blog on our website (http://www.the-latest.com/how-to-blog). Or upload newsy photos and videos from your camera phone: a celeb you spotted, a news event you captured. If we are able to sell on your contribution, you will be rewarded financially.
Here is some advice on how to find news: http://www.the-latest.com/how-to-get-stories

The-Latest provides instant worldwide distribution of its multimedia content. Contributors’ chances of reaching a big audience, and making a name for themselves, are optimised through the use of search engines and social networking.
