Zenger is dedicated to bringing high-quality news content to overlooked communities and promoting the broadest possible variety of voices and subjects.
Does Zenger News have a political bias?
No. We do not promote any set of policies, actions or ideologies. Zenger is an open platform that uses unique technology to allow thousands of reporters, editors, photographers and videographers to contribute freely from around the world. Our journalists are not selected by our editors, and do not have to adhere to any ideology or perspective — as long as they are committed to telling the truth and accurately portraying competing perspectives on the conflicts that divide our world. Our pending verification software, for which we are seeking patents, ensures that sources are named and not quoted out of context. We believe news needs to be compelling, thoughtful, and trustworthy.

The editors. All others, including investors, advertisers, and staff outside the Editorial department, are not involved or consulted in any way about any upcoming or published news content.
