Bay Area Citizen Tubers Could Be Featured On ABC

Over the last few months, YouTube has been putting more and more emphasis on the idea of citizen journalism via YouTube. They rolled out the CitizenTube News Feed earlier this summer and yesterday they announced that they have joined forces with the local Bay Area ABC station to launch a new project, the ABC7 uReport powered by YouTube. That’s right – if you live in the San Francisco Bay Area you are invited to document the news and your video may be featured on Channel 7!

Earlier this summer there were rumors floating around that YouTube was working on some sort of secret citizen journalism project in the Bay Area.
