There is a website called Scoop. it introduces itself- among other things - as:
Scoop is based on raw news; dis-intermediated news; news from the horses mouth. In the paper you read digested news - usually late. On the radio and TV you receive sound-bite news - compressed to fit formats that have always had to select and discriminate. Censor.

Scoop is also different from most internet based news services - the majority of which are based on feeds of news from the old - real-world - media.

On Scoop you can read the news at the same time that the media are reading it. It is all here.. the good oil.. the whole story..the whole speech..what the Prime Minister really said, not what the reporter heard her say. Better yet you get to hear it when the Prime Minister said it. Not tomorrow.

Scoop is however far more than just an ultra-fast raw news service.

The expression is French. Here are a couple of sample of how it is used:
