=Source= 
The Source bills itself as decentralized journalism, by the people and for the people. The Source uses low-cost options to establish itself as a newsfeed via the mesh. Anyone can contribute news to the Source, in the form of live feeds, recordings, or other media. The submissions process is crowdsourced, with volunteers and AIs combing through and rating new input. The highest-rated pieces are elevated to the Source’s primary newsfeed channels. Submissions are also contextually tagged for people’s personal muse news ﬁlters to more easily sort out the material that most interests them.
Despite being a largely volunteer, ad hoc, noncommercial operation, the Source often competes with mainstream newsfeeds and aggregators (much to the chagrin of various media hypercorps). The Source has occasionally been tainted with falsified news items (blamed on both [[Anon]] and the [[Decepticons]]), and is criticized for its vulnerability to outsiders gaming its submission ratings system.
