American Public Media Acquires Journo Crowdfunding Site Spot.Us
After three years of crowdfunding freelance journalists’ pitches to cover everything from corruption to crime to the environment, Spot.Us has been acquired.
American Public Media has acquired the site and will integrate it with its Public Insight Network, according to a release. Terms of the acquisition weren’t disclosed.
