FactsFirstUS.com was created out of necessity—not nostalgia. Not profit. Not politics. But because something sacred has been lost: journalism that tells the truth, no matter how inconvenient it is.
For too long, the media landscape has been poisoned by corporate filters, partisan agendas, and the slow decay of journalistic integrity. What once stood as a pillar of democracy has become a tool of manipulation, carefully curated to reinforce bias, silence dissent, and distract the public with noise.
FactsFirstUS.com exists to confront that decay head-on.
We are not here to blend in. We are here to challenge, to question, and to expose. To report what others won’t. To speak plainly when others dodge. To bring light where others have turned the camera off.
Truth should never hide behind a paywall.
Free from corporate influence and institutional fear.
We press, dig, uncover, and persist—no matter who holds power.
Our mission is to report plainly, truthfully, and relentlessly.
This isn’t just a website. It’s a declaration: facts still matter. And no matter how loud the lies become, truth will have a place to speak.
That place is FactsFirstUS.com.
We are journalists with decades of experience—men and women who came from a time when the newsroom mattered more than the sales department, and when truth—not an agenda—decided what went to print. We carry that tradition forward.
Our team has been recognized with awards across the industry, but recognition has never been the goal. The truth is. That’s why many of our stories won’t include the names of the journalists who wrote them. Fame doesn’t matter here—facts do. This anonymity also allows our reporters to uncover stories that high-profile personalities in the industry often can’t touch.
But our newsroom doesn’t stop with us. It includes you.
Many of the stories you’ll find on FactsFirstUS.com start with our readers—the tips, experiences, and evidence you share from within your own communities. When the facts can be verified, we will amplify them. We will give you a voice.
We welcome contributions from all walks of life, from every corner of the political spectrum. Because honest reporting doesn’t belong to one party or one ideology—it belongs to all of us.
At FactsFirstUS.com, we aren’t here to make the powerful comfortable. We’re here to give truth a platform—and to make sure the voices that deserve to be heard never get silenced.
