Criticl: A New Platform to Nurture and Empower Citizen Journalism

After being disappointed with the current options for publishing content online, Jake Counsell created Criticl as a place to create quality content and engage in high minded discussion.

The early promise of the internet was the democratization of media. There was the ideal of the citizen journalist who would take part in gathering, reporting and analysing the news. But as online media matured, we found that the old media companies were adapting to the new medium, and new media companies operating in much the same fashion as their predecessors.

It was this very ideal of citizen journalism that inspired Jake Counsell and Claire Wagner to create Criticl.
