Description
ProPublica is an independent, non-profit newsroom that produces investigative journalism in the public interest.
ProPublica's newest feature is #MuckReads, an ongoing collection of watchdog reporting. #MuckReads will curate the day's essential accountability stories, discovered and shared by our reporters and editors, and readers like you—stories about the abuse of prisoners, the education levels of our country's legislators and the laundering of public funds.
ProPublica's mission is to do journalism that has real-world impact, and they're especially keen to find and promote work from others that has the same impetus.

Funding
The Sandler Foundation made a major, multi-year commitment to fund ProPublica at launch. Other philanthropic contributions have been received as well, and more are needed.
Beginning in 2011, ProPublica also accepts advertising. And they are constantly exploring possible new revenue streams, although philanthropy, in large gifts and small, will continue to be their principal source of income for the foreseeable future.
Success to date
ProPublica was a recipient of the 2011 Pulitzer Prize in National Reporting and a 2010 Pulitzer Prize in Investigative Reporting.
