Digital First Media, which operates MediaNews GroupJournal Register Company and Digital First Ventures, announced the expansion of the Company’s Social Media Wire, the real-time delivery of local and topical social media, news and video posts in an audience-facing newswire format, developed in concert with Crowdynews.

“When it comes to local news and information, the Social Web is invaluable. Our audiences are not only talking about the stories we produce and the topics we cover but they are adding to the conversation, offering new information and helping to find new angles through their conversations. The collaboration with Crowdynews to develop the Social Media Wire allows us to bring a new dimension of urgency, communication and access to social media channels for our audience. The Social Media Wire brings more voices, more sources to our sites.”
