When he captured the video of Hillary Clinton stumbling as she entered a van after a 9/11 memorial event in New York, Zdenek Gazda knew he had caught something significant on camera. But when Storyful first spoke to him, his first comment was, “What is going on with this video? Everybody is calling me.”
On the morning of the terror attacks in Brussels, in March 2016, Storyful debunked two videos that were trending on social media — both were CCTV footage purporting to show the deadly Brussels Airport explosions. They were, in fact, from separate bombings in Moscow and Minsk in 2011.
A Storyful journalist in the Herald Sun newsroom in Melbourne told an editor, who was preparing to use a still from the video for the front page of the paper. The editor instead used an image cleared by Storyful — the image of a bleeding, dust-covered woman: the enduring image of the event.
Before the gunmen had even left the offices of Charlie Hebdo on a January morning in Paris, Storyful alerted worldwide clients to a shooting there. Storyful journalists quickly built a geofence around the offices in order to get closest to the story and pull in content from eyewitnesses.
An hour after the attack began, Storyful provided partners with the defining images. Over the days that followed, Storyful published more than 200 stories for clients.
