Citizen Journalism Launched at Prague Times

The Prague Times - http://thepraguetimes.cz

At The Prague Times we deliver the information that impacts the daily life of Praguers by employing Praguers as citizen journalists and news spotters. We are officially launching the English edition on December 1st 2016.

How We Are Different and So What?

We truly deliver the news and actionable information that Praguers need. Using our social media technology, Praguers can alert us to breaking local news by using the #praguetimes hashtag in their social media postings and tweets. Praguers can also alert us to the news they need by using the #praguetimesGET hashtag. Our journalists, researchers and production teams do the rest. Supporting our Citizen Journalists with professional media production is a significant "So What?" factor.

We are Hiring
Want to get involved as a Citizen Journalist and News Spotter? Or would you like to work with us on media production and journalism? Come and visit us for a quick chat and coffee at our vibrant (chaotic) offices near Charles Bridge and Malostranske Namesti, Mala Strana, Prague 1. Call us on +420 775 079 305 to arrange a time.
