In today's media landscape, many news organizations no longer report - they merely repost. The Center for Investigative Reporting (CIR) is different. They arm the public with thoroughly reported stories that offer deep explanations of complex issues - from the environment to immigration, government accountability, education, health, campaign finance and more. And they cover those stories locally, nationally and internationally. Founded in 1977, CIR is the nation's oldest nonprofit investigative reporting organization - producing multimedia reporting that enables people to demand accountability from government, corporations and others in power. CIR's newest venture, the award winning California Watch, is the largest investigative team in the state. Their staff includes highly-skilled reporters who know how to cultivate sources and find hidden information; engineers and analysts who create sophisticated news apps, interactive maps and tools to help the public understand issues from the macro to the micro level; and radio, video and multimedia producers who create engaging documentaries, videos and animated features to demystify complex topics. CIR's distribution and engagement team then works to deliver this information across hundreds of outlets and to engage their readers, listeners, viewers, and those most impacted by their reporting in the search for solutions. The organization's stories appear in hundreds of news outlets including NPR News, PBS Frontline, PBS NEWSHOUR, The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, Washington Post, The San Francisco Chronicle, The Sacramento Bee, The Daily Beast, MinnPost and American Public Media's Marketplace.
