[excerpt]
A program by United Press International, Inc. (UPI), UPIU is a social
media platform that aims to bring together the voices of journalists,
academics, human rights reporters, public education professionals, and
bloggers. We want to see and hear your stories, and we want to share them
with the world. Your work can live beyond a professor's desk. Your expert
opinion can reach a mass audience beyond your peers. Coupled with citizen
journalism submissions, your story will include those parts of the story
that mainstream media misses.
More than just another social network, UPIU wants to harness the powers of
both traditional and emerging new media to bring the stories that matter
to the world's attention, beyond just the internet. Our editors constantly
review your submissions, seeking the stories that deserve global
attention. UPI will publish these stories, channeling your images, text,
and videos through print, radio, TV and other multimedia outlets
throughout the world.
Catapult your journalistic career. When you post your content, you can get
ratings and feedback to help you improve your writing. With the ability to
respond to content with your own content, you can both contribute and gain
insight. With an audience from all over the world, each member is an
opportunity to build your international professional network. And when UPI
publishes your work, you'll get the byline; you'll keep the copyright.
