Got a smartphone? Become a citizen reporter! Join the Global Citizen Journalist movement! VoxReport is a platform that wants your eyewitness videos of newsworthy events. Using a smartphone and a simple, yet effective reporting format—the 5 Ws and H (Who, What, Where, Why, When and How), record a one minute video providing a person-on-the-street perspective of events happening in front of you as they unfold. If you are unsatisfied with the biased, edited stories that are currently offered on networks, if you are tired of the network reporters being the story instead of reporting stories, if you are tired of sponsor driven reporting, then Vox Report is for you.
