At the risk of insulting you: pay the damn writers.

Writing is a job, an occupation. It is hard, you've already admitted it as you have no time for it. Don't crowd source it: pay for the quality you want to have instead of looking for a way to squeeze that work product out of others.

Your intentions sound noble enough. Informing people is a reasonable endeavour. But you haven't invented a new wheel, you've reinvented an old one: journalism. Or at least the platform. Don't be blinded by your good intentions to provide a needed service and think that excuses you of the moral obligation to society to pay for that which you acquire from others.

Yours truly,

Writer & software developer
