What is "open-source journalism"?

Open-source journalism refers to the practice of gathering, sharing, and reporting news using publicly available information and collaborative tools. Journalists in this field often rely on open data, online platforms, and crowdsourced contributions from the public to create stories. This type of journalism encourages transparency and participation, allowing anyone with access to the Internet to contribute to the news-gathering process. Open-source journalism can be particularly useful for covering events in real-time, especially in situations where traditional reporting might be limited or restricted, and it promotes a more fair approach to news production.
