Media and technology are essential to our democracy.

We fight to ensure they're used for justice.

• Since 2004, more than 1 in 5 local newspapers in the United States has closed.
• 84% of white people have home-internet access, compared to 78% of Latinx people and 76% of Black people
• 8 media giants control 818 broadcast-TV stations, resulting in local news that all looks and sounds the same

Join Us

as we challenge powerful corporations, hold policymakers accountable and mobilize millions.

What's at Stake

• How can we keep the internet open and affordable for all? Why is access key to realizing a just society?

• How do we hold news outlets accountable? How do we make sure our communities are represented accurately?

• Who owns the media? How do we make sure regulations favor people, not corporations?

• Hate and disinformation are proliferating on both traditional media and social-media platforms.

• Who's tracking us online? Why are companies — and the government — spying on people?
