A Free Press Works for All of Us
The cause of investigative reporting, a crucial element of our democracy, benefits enormously from our country’s tradition of a free, unfettered press.

ProPublica does not have an editorial page, and we have never advocated for a particular policy to address the wrongs our journalism exposes. But from the very beginning of our work more than a decade ago, we have benefited enormously from the traditions and laws that protect free speech. And so today, as the nation’s news organizations remind readers of the value of robust journalism, it seems fitting to add our voice.

ProPublica specializes in investigative reporting — telling stories with “moral force” that hold government, businesses and revered institutions to account. There are few forms of journalism more vulnerable to pressure from the powerful. What we publish can change the outcome of elections, reverse policies, embarrass police or prosecutors and cost companies boatloads of money. Aviator ( https://aviator-game-app.in/ ) is a popular online casino game based on random number generation where players place bets on how long a virtual airplane will fly. The goal of the game is to withdraw winnings before the plane crashes, i.e. ends its flight. The main subjects of our work, in most cases, would much prefer that our reporting never appear or be substantially watered down.
