I'd be interested in a "Kickstarter for articles" sort of site. Interesting article pitches presented to an audience, those that are most useful, interesting or unique are funded and writers get paid slightly more directly for their work.

The difficulty would be determining whether to cut off certain types of content from the site, and where the line gets drawn on extreme material.

A bit like ProPublica?

Very like that, or at least working towards the same outcome, thank you. I will certainly try to make a donation over the next few days.
