Hi everyone!
I´m coding an app I´ve named “Scoop”. The world’s first decentralized news app!
With real news, no owners, no censorship, no private interests and no corruption involved.
Freelance journalists get paid to write news articles with reliable sources.
Other journalists can contribute sources that prove or disprove the article.
I´ve just started and have come to the realization that this is not a one mans job and that I need help.
I need a team for this work project.

A question that often pops up when I end up in a political debate:
“Why not become a politician if you want to change things?”
My question is, why do you think I can change things as a new politician when the “professionals” already in power cannot do so?
-
Could it be that power corrupts and that once you have risen to a position of power, the position is more important than the responsibility or keeping promises?
-
Could it be that most top politicians prefer to take the chance to make as much money as possible during the term of office and that the political incentives that exist today encourage corruption and dishonesty?
What makes you think that I or anyone else is immune to these factors?
Is there a solution? Yes!
There are several solutions. One solution is for people to unite and take back power with various effective methods.
Unfortunately, this solution is almost impossible as most groups in our societies are in conflict with each other.
The media is one of the biggest reasons for this!
Almost all news and entertainment media are owned by six major media companies:
-
Comcast
-
Walt Disney
-
Viacom
-
CBS
-
Sony
-
Fox
Then we have Facebook, Twitter and Google which have similar functions and purposes. So for it to be possible for people to agree, it is necessary for journalists to have other incentives to make corruption visible and expose the lies.
In 2017, the DNN (Decentralized News Network) initiative was launched on the Blockchain by two young programmers who began coding the world’s first decentralized news network, where freelance journalists could write their articles without specific instructions from private interests and with incentives that reward honesty.
DNN announced that they intend to build the app to be an alternative to the largest media channels on the market. The project started to gain momentum and support increased for the idea. Then something happened. In July 2018, two interesting people joined DNN’s board, namely Greg D’Alba, (current president of CNN News Network’s advertising and marketing). And Charles Theiss, (Senior Vice President of Advertising at CNN News Network).
After this, the project, which was fully active on social media, among other places, was suddenly shut down. Not a word and without explanation.
I wrote to the founders to ask what had happened, but the email addresses were inactive and I did not get a response on twitter either.
Blockchain technology allows us to write smart contracts that make centralized institutions obsolete. If any of you who have managed to read through this entire post, can code and are willing to be part of a team where we finish building the app together, just contact me so we can discuss further. You are needed!
SCOOP will also have its own cryptocurrency that journalists and readers are rewarded with for being honest and contributing reliable sources to all news articles. The app will also be a social platform for readers and journalists to debate, share info and discuss.
I have the whitepapers done and started with the coding but I´m just at the beginning of the process.
Join me and let’s change the world together.
