Abstract

AP is the world's oldest and most trusted news source. We are a Not-for-Profit news cooperative and we only file fact-based news - no opinion or commentary. Our news is trusted by everyone on the political spectrum and we have staff in over 180 countries. We're keen to become a trusted news source in Decentraland and to develop a newsgathering and reporting model that is consistent with the mission of the DAO.

Description

Facts belong. They are crucial in the analog world, onchain and in the Metaverse. AP is a highly trusted provider of facts. We have published US election data onchain as a start and are working to develop new models of newgathering and reporting for the decentralized economies of the future. We'd also love to have some fun developing an AP presence in Decentraland and are eager to do so and not just port over models from the outside world.
