Truth in Journalism.
Integrity in Every Story.

Who We Are

Our Mission

Saving Oregon by providing Oregonians with responsible, reliable and well-researched information about their government and its policies.

Our Vision

We see an Oregon as free and prosperous as it is beautiful, where government does the work of the people, not the other way around.

Our Key Values

Truth

Prioritizing truth in every story, our journalists diligently verify each fact to provide reliable, transparent, and honest reporting. Stay informed with integrity.

Fairness

Our reporting is driven by fairness. We have our biases, just like every single other journalist, but operate with those in mind to ensure we are presenting facts in a responsible, fair way.

Accuracy

Accuracy is the cornerstone of our work. Adhering to the highest journalistic standards, we meticulously check facts and review sources to deliver precise and reliable news essential for a well-informed public.

Fearlessness

Approaching journalism with courage and insight, we tackle tough, often complex, issues and demand accountability from people in power. Our fearless reporting is dedicated to uncovering the truth and sparking responsibility among those who govern us.
