ABOUT THE NATIONAL PRESS

The most important news in America often begins small, with local reporting from journalists who know their neighbors, understand their communities, and ask the most urgent questions.

In a recent Pew Research Center survey, 71% of Americans said they trust local journalists to report the news accurately. The National Press is built on that rare foundation of trust.

The National Press delivers the work of over 1,200 local journalists across more than sixty American markets. That network means we can bring you the most important stories before the news is distorted into narrative in national headlines, uncover connections others haven’t yet made, and give you a clearer picture of what’s happening across the country, according to the people who are actually there.

The spin stops at The National Press.

Join The National Press to start your morning with a briefing that brings you the most important local stories from across America that matter to you—no matter where you live.

Members get original journalism, daily and weekly videos and podcasts, and direct access to a national network of local reporters.

The National Press is a community that wants to understand America as it really is: to celebrate what’s working, discuss our challenges, and have thoughtful conversations about what’s coming next.
