“Knewz is unique in that readers can, at a single glance, see
multiple sources. It is not egregious aggregation but generous
aggregation. There are mastheads from across the political and
regional spectrum, and premium publishers will not be relegated in
the rankings,” said Robert Thomson, chief executive of News
Corp.
Knewz.com works by combining cutting edge, proprietary
artificial intelligence with experienced editors. The technology
constantly scans hundreds of real news sources, and editors curate
a selection of headlines that provide a broad perspective on
stories of the day.
“Readers will have access to publishers large and small, niche
and general, located in all 50 states,” said Mr. Thomson. “We live
in a world of vexatious verticals, of crass clickbait, of polarized
perspectives and fallacious, fact-free feeds - Knewz is knowing and
needed. Knewz nous is in the house.”
Knewz.com will share as much data as possible with publishers,
ensuring that they have every opportunity to monetize their
content. Branding will be particularly prominent to ensure that
provenance is respected.
Knewz.com is currently sourcing headlines from more than 400
publishers, though the list is expected to continue evolving during
beta testing. Among current publishers whose headlines can be found
on Knewz.com are: Anchorage Daily News, Arkansas Democrat-Gazette,
Axios, Bangor Daily News, Black Enterprise, The Blaze, Bleacher
Report, BuzzFeed, Daily Kos, Deadline, Defense News, El Paso Times,
Essence, The Federalist, Foreign Affairs, Hartford Courant, Mother
Jones, The Nation, National Review, Newsmax, Out, Reason, Rochester
Democrat and Chronicle, The Root, Scientific American, Talking
Points Memo, Tampa Bay Times, Townhall, Washington Examiner,
Washington Free Beacon, Washington Post and Winston-Salem
Journal.
Knewz.com, available on desktop, mobile and mobile app, is being
operated by a team of editors and technical experts at News Corp,
working in conjunction with the company’s Strategy team as well as
its Storyful unit, which is helping Knewz.com monitor news
developments worldwide.
