OptOut

OptOut is a free news aggregation app that brings you the best of independent media. Read, listen to, and watch news content from financially independent sources—news you won’t find anywhere else.

NEWS WITHOUT CORPORATE BIAS

All content comes from news outlets that are financially independent. No corporate owners. No institutional bias. No conflicts of interest.

OVERLOOKED STORIES THAT MATTER

We feature investigative reporting and stories about climate, democracy, justice, labor, and other important topics. We have a special focus on voices traditionally underrepresented in the media industry.

CURATED BY JOURNALISTS

A diverse team of experienced journalists hand-curates the news of the day, not corporate algorithms designed to boost profitable content.

PERSONALIZED EXPERIENCE

Follow outlets and individual journalists to create your own personalized feed.

PROTECTING YOUR DATA

OptOut respects your privacy by design and does not sell your preferences or browsing history to advertising firms.

A NONPROFIT RUN BY JOURNALISTS

This app is a project of the OptOut Media Foundation, a nonprofit charity founded and led by journalists, not Big Tech. We’re funded by grants and by you, our audience, not corporations or Wall Street.

Opt Out of the corporate media. Opt in to independent news you can trust.
