YouTube Direct that allows news and media organisations to request, review, and rebroadcast clips directly from YouTube users.

The new service was beta-tested by the Huffington Post and will be used by National Public Radio and the San Francisco Chronicle, among others. It offers an interface that is deeply integrated into the news organisations' sites, and makes the communciation between user and media organisation much more direct. The hope is that this will make fact checking – where videos came from, when they were made – much easier.
