Don't tread on the truth
The Gadsden Report is an independent news aggregator. We watch the wire so you do not have to, put the day's headlines on one page, and give every story a place to be read, linked, and argued about.
What this is, plainly
We are an aggregator, not a newsroom. We do not have reporters, we do not break stories, and we do not rewrite other people's work and pass it off as ours. What we do is read a lot of feeds, pick out what matters, group it, and hand you the link.
Every headline carries the name of the outlet that reported it. Every story page has one job above all others: to send you to that outlet's own page. The summary here is ours and is meant to help you decide whether to click, not to replace the article.
Editorial principles
- Attribution first. The reporting outlet is named on the headline, on the story page, and in the newsletter.
- Link out, always. Every story page's most prominent control opens the original.
- Summaries, never reproductions. We publish a headline and a short summary. We do not republish articles.
- No invented facts. A summary says only what the source said. If the source is uncertain, so are we.
- Breadth over agreement. Selection aims at what is significant, not at what any one side wants to read.
Corrections
If a summary here is wrong, tell us and we will fix it, quickly and without argument. Use the tips page and say which story. Corrections to our own summaries are made in place and the story page's modified date changes to reflect it.
If the error is in the original reporting rather than our summary, we will say so and point you to the outlet responsible - they own their copy, and only they can correct it.
Ownership, funding, and independence
The Gadsden Report is independently owned and operated. It is not funded by, affiliated with, or directed by any political party, campaign, candidate, or advocacy organisation. Nobody pays for placement and no story appears here because someone asked for it to.
Comment rules
Sign in with Google, Apple, or Facebook to comment. Then keep to four rules:
- Argue with the claim, not the person. No abuse, no slurs, no threats.
- Stay on the story. Take a running feud somewhere else.
- No spam, no advertising, no link-dumping, no impersonation.
- Nothing illegal, and no private information about anyone.
Moderators can remove a comment or suspend an account. Removed comments leave a visible marker rather than vanishing, so a thread still makes sense afterwards. You can delete your own comments at any time.

Questions we get
What is the Gadsden Report?
The Gadsden Report is an independent news aggregator. It collects headlines from established outlets across politics, the economy, world and security, and culture and technology, refreshes them around the clock, and gives each story its own page for readers to discuss. It does not produce original reporting.
Where do the stories come from?
From the public feeds of established news organisations. Every headline names the outlet that reported it, and every story page links straight to the original article. We summarise and link. We never reproduce a full article.
How often does the site update?
Continuously. A background job checks the wire roughly every 30 minutes, and new stories appear on the front page as soon as they are picked up. The archive keeps everything permanently.
How do I get the newsletter?
Subscribe on the newsletter page and choose how often you want it: the instant it publishes, every morning, afternoon, or evening, once a day, or a weekly roundup. You can change the frequency or stop it entirely from a link in every email.
Do I need an account to read the site?
No. Reading, searching, the archive, the feeds, and the newsletter are all open. You only need to sign in - with Google, Apple, or Facebook - to leave a comment or send the newsroom a tip.
How do I report a mistake?
Send it through the tips page. We correct errors in a summary as soon as they are confirmed, and if the error is in the original reporting we point you to the outlet responsible.
Reaching us
News tips, corrections, and complaints all go through the tips page, which needs a signed-in account so we can reply and so the queue stays free of junk.
If you would rather write directly, we are at news@gadsdenreport.com. Everything we send comes from that address or from noreply@gadsdenreport.com — if a message claiming to be from us arrives from anywhere else, it is not us.
