If you were at the location of a news story and you shot video, who would you send it to and would you expect to get paid? News organisations are also struggling to verify that footage that comes in is genuine. Verifeye Media allows users to download the app and send the footage straight to them. They can verify where it came from and sell it on. The person who filmed it then gets a percentage of the earnings. Is this the future for mobile video content in news? John D McHugh tells Mark Egan how it works and why he thinks many people get ripped off when they give their footage to news outlets.
