British news wire

Reuters is a major international news agency headquartered in London, providing news coverage to media outlets worldwide.

Founded in 1851, it built its reputation on fast, accurate reporting—originally using carrier pigeons and telegraph lines.

Reuters supplies text, photographs, and video to newspapers, broadcasters, and financial institutions.

The name often appears attributively: a Reuters correspondent, according to Reuters.
