Citizen journalism is the practice of independent media makers recording and writing from events on the ground, and broadcasting their work through citizen journalism organisations or selling it for use by the mainstream media broadcasters.

Gari Sullivan is a UK citizen journalist who has recently returned from reporting on the conflicts in Syria; at times working as the only Western reporter on the ground in Damascus.
He runs a citizen journalism website brokerage called NoozDesk.
