# ***Introduction*** I own the domain name MajorNews.com. I am interested in developing a web site using (open source) tied to Steemit and maybe other platforms with monetary rewards. I have 1000+ ideas about how this could work, but the #1 thing you must do when developing a new web site is find out what interests people the most. If I added all 1000+ ideas, it would be a bit overwhelming. + Looking for anyone who wants to be part of our team. Graphic artists, programmers, idea people, marketers, entrepreneurs, investors ... ??? ... Comment your interest and area(s) of expertise. # MajorNews Experiment #1: ***Purpose:*** Try a few different things, see if anyone likes any of the ideas... in other words... sling some mud on the wall and see what sticks. + Today's experiment. We pick a news headline and try to create discussion around it. ***Audience Participation Requested*** Please start a comment to this post and add to it as you read down through the post. I'll be asking for your feedback about several things... Help shape the future of MajorNews.com by providing quality feedback and ideas. + My vote is only worth about 3 cents, but I will try to upvote any comments as my way of saying thank you. Your input will be recorded and at some point you might be rewarded again, if and when we launch the new site. ***Synopsis:*** Let's look at the top headline from the #1 rated news site on the Internet.. Drudge Report.com **Comment Poll**: Do you like DrudgeReport.com? + Yes or No + If no, what web site would you recommend I use in the future? ## Top news headline according to DrudgeReport.com https://www.drudgereport.com/ at 11:20 CST August 8, 2018

Enough to sway the election and put it out of reach of forcing a recount. We won't know the actual results for 11 days when the absentee ballots are counted. **Comment Poll**: Is this MajorNews? + Use a scale of 0 to 10 0 = absolutely not 5 = kind of 10 = absolutely yes **Comment Poll**: Is there a story behind this story? + Yes, No + If yes, what? Example: The Dems have lost their support because of the way Clinton and the head Dems rigged the primary against Bernie Sanders. ***Source:*** http://www.dailymail.co.uk/ **Comment Poll**: Do you trust this news source? + Yes, No, Do Not Know, Sometimes **Comment Poll**: Did they accurately report this story? + Yes, No, Do Not Know, Too sensational, ??? **Comment Poll**: How would you have reported this story? + I wouldn't have + Or tell us in your words how you would have reported... **Comment Poll**: Have you seen this reported elsewhere? + If yes, please + provide a link. + Compare the 2 stories. **Comment Poll**: Do you agree with any of Joe's ideas? + Yes (if so, which ones), No **Comment Poll**: Anything else you would like to say about: + This "news" article from the Daily Mail? + Elections + Politics Background to this question: Sometimes local news gets reported differently by the "mainstream" media... **Comment Poll**: Are you an eyewitness? ... Do you live in Ohio? + If yes, + are they reporting about this story there? + If yes, what is the news reporting there? ### Conclusion **Comment Poll**: What did you think about today's experiment? **Comment Poll**: Which do you like? + Us coming up with the MajorNews headlines (total control of spam) + Opening it up for anyone to report MajorNews headlines (might be hard to control spam without moderators...) + Both + Neither, Here's a better idea... **Comment Poll**: Do you have any suggestions for our next experiment? **Comment Poll**: What ideas do you have about rewarding contributors to a news site, such as I've proposed with this post?
