Lessons from Wikileaks: Great news doesn’t have to come from a newsroom
Location: BlogsICFJ Speaks    
Posted by: Dawn Arteaga 7/30/2010 3:26 PM
When Wikileaks released 92,000 secret documents related to the U.S. war in Afghanistan this week, some analysts contended that it could change the face of the war, both in the way it was fought and how it was perceived by Americans.

When Wikileaks released 92,000 secret documents related to the U.S. war in Afghanistan this week, some analysts contended that it could change the face of the war, both in the way it was fought and how it was perceived by Americans. This influential story didn’t come from a major news outlet, but rather, an organization that publishes leaked material anonymously.

Citizen journalism can be a powerful tool, and ICFJ has several resources to show you how to use it responsibly.

This Lebanese journalist started her own watchdog Web site after taking an ICFJ online course.

Are you a journalist entrepreneur? IJNet has a quiz to see if you have what it takes to go it alone.

Malaysian journalists in one ICFJ program are exposing corruption and covering human rights issues.

To track corruption, you have to start with the money. See ICFJ’s digital guide, which is now available in Russian!

See reporter Chuck Lewis talk about the basics of investigative reporting on IJNet’s YouTube channel.
