The minds behind the world’s first digitally native wire service

Richard Miniter is the founder and chief executive of Zenger News, the world’s first digitally native wire service owned and operated by working journalists. His reporting and commentary have appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, Forbes, and dozens of other publications across five continents.

A veteran foreign correspondent and investigative journalist, Miniter has covered wars, revolutions, and presidential campaigns from more than sixty countries. He is the author of four books on national security, including two New York Times bestsellers.

Under his leadership, Zenger has pioneered a revenue-sharing model that pays reporters and partner outlets directly, building an open network where advertising income flows to the journalists who create the journalism.

Cedric Nicolas leads Zenger’s technology vision and infrastructure as Chief Technology Officer. He is responsible for the platforms, systems, and engineering culture that power the world’s first digitally native wire service.

With a background spanning product engineering, distributed systems, and media technology, Cedric has built Zenger’s publishing stack from the ground up — enabling real-time content syndication, intelligent distribution, and the revenue-sharing infrastructure that sets Zenger apart from legacy wire services.

He is committed to building technology that puts journalists first, removing the barriers between great reporting and the audiences who need it.
