Starting a news agency?

Want to launch a travel and tourism news agency.

A service similar to AP, Reuters and Bloomberg but only focused on the travel trade in South Africa.

Intend using freelance journalists and contributors who will provide exclusive content and be paid per submission. Content to be sold to news and related companies.
