YouTube Gets An Investigative News Channel

images (6)Crack journalism is coming to the land of cat and Justin Bieber videos: YouTube is helping tolauncha new channel with the Center for Investigative Journalism (CIR). The new "I Files" channel will curate videos from sources such as The New York Times and Al Jazeera, in a attempt to bring some much needed attention to the fledgling investigative journalism space and bolster YouTube's multi-million dollar foray into professional content. An $800,000 grant from the Knight foundation is seeding the channel, which will share revenue with its content partners.
