The collaborative environment of journalistic curation enables more rapid reporting of stories or information. Content curation can be used to supplement old fashioned journalistic story writing, to provide a fuller and richer reader experience. Journalistic curation creates partnerships between like-minded journalists or publications. Curation enables reporting on subject matter geographically unreachable or otherwise inaccessible to the journalist, using others’ firsthand points of view and media. Curation provides a wider variety and greater diversity of “voices” and perspectives, without employing multiple journalists. Curation is far more cost-effective in quality news delivery, than beat assignments or a face-to-face journalistic approach. Journalistic curation on the web provides great visibility for the publication through greater depth of content delivery and inherent search optimization.
