It used to be that Associated Content paid money for contents such as articles, slide shows, and audio.

When Associated Content started out, many writers, both beginners and professionals, flocked to the site. Payments were good back in those days.

However, over time, many writers noticed that Associated Content’s payments have decreased.

It seems as if Associated Content have put another dent in their writers pocket.

AC usually pays $4 upfront payment for news articles, such as the recent Tiger Woods SUV car crash. Not anymore! Associated Content have sent news writers the following:

“We have decided to remove the Upfront Payment option for non-assignment news.

Too much of our resources were spent reviewing for-pay stories that either didn’t come close to meeting requirements or were merely stolen from other media companies.

It’s our hope this will free us up to devote our time and energy to work that is more beneficial to Contributors, AC and our readers.

As always, we will continue to issue for-pay news assignments that are available to the entire community.”

This means even writers with legitimate news will not be paid the usual $4 upfront payment for the article unless it is something Associated Content have requested.

I can understand why AC will no longer want to pay for News articles. It’s simply rehashed news, summarized, rewritten, and given a “new angle” by writers on Associated Content.

What angers me is that people who have first hand accounts of legitimate news will not be paid upfront payments because of writers who only written rehashed articles. How professional is that? Well, thanks AC for at least reading your forums and taking action! Makes me wonder if that particular writer’s other articles are all rehashed stuff.
