List of the top news agencies in the world

News agencies are often the official voice of the government, they set the countries global news agenda daily by supplying a variety of media publications such as newspapers, TV, and Radio with real-time news events.

Most news agencies have a network of nationally based journalists collecting news as it happens which is then channelled back through various departments and angled into news stories, the news is then distributed through terminals where media publications have direct access to the data and use the stories for a variable price if they choose to do so.
