CBS News and the GlobalPost Web site announced Monday a partnership that will provide foreign news coverage to the network by GlobalPost's nearly 70 correspondents spread around the world.
GlobalPost, an eight-month-old site founded by Phil Balboni, who created the New England Cable News network, and former Boston Globe foreign correspondent Charles Sennott, uses a network of part-time correspondents to gather and report international news. Each of the correspondents has a minor ownership stake in the site.
CBS will primarily rely on the GlobalPost reports as background for stories that its journalists will then repackage.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
