Worldcrunch is a Paris-based English language news website that curates and translates news from international media sources or partner organizations. It was launched in 2011 and was founded by Jeff Israely, former bureau chief for Time Magazine in Europe, and Irène Toporkoff, former CEO of Ask.com France and Angie Interactive. In the words of Jeff Israely, it aims for "The professional (and participatory) selection and translation of the best, most relevant stories in the foreign-language media." Journalists and translators from around the world contribute to Worldcrunch, which translates articles from top news organizations such as Le Monde, Le Temps, Die Welt, Folha de Sao Paulo, The Economic Observer or America Economia into English. The goal is to compensate for the decline in English-language foreign coverage with translations from quality worldwide media sources. Some partner websites, such as La Stampa or Les Echos, include English sections on their websites that display Worldcrunch translations. More information...
