Posted: 8/19/2011 | By: Tim Sohn
Ebyline, a free online platform for publishers and freelancers to solicit and pitch content, has launched video and audio capabilities at its portal, according to the company.
In adding this functionality, Ebyline hopes to attract television and radio producers.
“Publishers and broadcasters are rapidly evolving from traditional news outlets to digital media companies,” said Bill Momary, CEO and co-founder of Ebyline. “The addition of video and audio capabilities to our already full-featured text offering will help newsrooms of all types cater to the digital world.”
Scripps Television Station Group and Scripps Newspapers have signed up to use Ebyline to supplement their current roster of independent video producers, as well as forge new relationships with high-quality freelancers.
“During this period of media transition, Scripps television stations are differentiating themselves in their markets by actually increasing the quantity and quality of the journalism we offer our audiences — whether the screen is on a television, computer, or mobile device,” said Adam Symson, vice president of interactive for Scripps’ 10 television stations. “Ebyline’s technology helps us deliver superior reporting and storytelling across multiple platforms in a cost-efficient manner.”
