MintPress News is an independent watchdog journalism organization that provides issue-based original reporting, in-depth investigations, and thoughtful analysis of the most pressing topics facing our nation.

Founded in 2011, our mission is to re-empower the public with pertinent & insightful coverage of issues often over-looked by the current media establishment. Our independence allows us a unique opportunity to investigate important issues without the restraints which often impede larger corporate media outlets.

We focus our coverage on issues relating to the effects of special interest groups, big business and lobbying efforts and how they shape policies at home and abroad, including American foreign policy.

Through the lens of social justice and human rights, we report on how these dynamics drive our foreign affairs and impact the world, and examine the effects they have on our democracy and freedoms as defined by the constitution.

Journalism, as defined by the first amendment, plays the role of watchdog over the government. This is what inspires our style of reporting at MintPress News.

We are a for profit organization. Our goal is to be funded through advertising, syndication, and other traditional funding sources. Because we strongly believe in citizen driven journalism, we accept online donations. However, we are committed to rejecting any funding sources that attempt to influence what we report on and how we do so.

MintPress is tenaciously committed to total editorial freedom and journalistic integrity.
