‘Uma banda de punk rock’: como o The Intercept ergueu um abrigo para o jornalismo investigativo no Brasil

By Breno Costa | February 20, 2019

English

 

Desde que o jornalista Glenn Greenwald ajudou a lançar o The Intercept cinco anos atrás, na esteira da sua série de reportagens sobre o caso Edward Snowden, o site tem crescido de forma rápida. Vários furos foram publicados nos Estados Unidos, muitos deles centrados nas agências americanas de inteligência. Mas uma consequência um pouco inesperada na época da criação do site nos EUA foi o lançamento de uma versão brasileira, o The Intercept Brasil, baseado no Rio de Janeiro, onde Greenwald vive desde 2005. Ele considerou que o Brasil, com toda sua turbulência política e desafios envolvendo os direitos humanos, seria um bom local para experimentar um braço do The Intercept fora dos Estados Unidos. 

Quando foi lançado, em 2016, o The Intercept Brasil não teve dificuldade em atrair interesses da audiência brasileira, muito em função da popularidade de Greenwald no país, em particular entre o público mais à esquerda. No entanto, a operação ganhou mais musculatura quando o jornalista investigativo Leandro Demori foi colocado por Glenn no comando, no início de 2018.

The Investigative News Website Targeting Working Class Millennials

By Charlotte Tobitt | December 4, 2018

Robyn Vinter, founder of a UK-based investigative news website for working-class millennials and people outside the “London bubble,” says she made a conscious choice not to try and make a “big profit” from it. “We’re not trying to be millionaires,” says Vinter.“We’re trying to do investigative journalism, and you can’t really do both, I don’t think.”

Can Crowdfunding Save Romania’s Independent Media?

By Oscar Stanciulescu and Marian Popovici | July 23, 2018

The increasing lack of credibility and growing political meddling in Romanian mainstream media in recent years has resulted in many journalists leaving these outlets and starting their own independent sites. Some of these initiatives support themselves by relying on crowdfunding. But is it viable in the long term?

Hong Kong’s FactWire Startup Takes Novel Approach: No Editors

By Marc Lourdes | May 23, 2018

Press self-censorship in Hong Kong has been deteriorating as businessmen behind media organisations increasingly use the press as their business tool rather than for public service. After seeing the public’s disillusionment and distrust of the media grow, investigative journalist Don Ng decided to kickstart FactWire, a back-to-basics news service that focuses on long-term investigations.

Pactio: Where Loyal Readers Follow — and Fund — Their Favorite Reporters

By Shan Wang | April 24, 2018

There’s a new funding strategy in the works, built around the idea that quite a few reporters have loyal followings and their readers just might be willing to chip in a few bucks to keep them in the news business. But as more organizations turn to reader support for revenue — whether framed as memberships or as subscriptions — they might face stiff competition for their individual crowdfunding model.
