Terrific source of news and analysis from a decidedly non-MSM perspective. I like the simplicity of layout & presentation, and the Functionality is great too, with the ability to favourite articles. Haven't tried the "myMPN" feature yet but looks like it offers something for those with more spare time to get involved with.

Great alternative resource but the app is hugely slow and just a bit amateurish. Does not work on slow connections at all, reloads the entire page after lock screen and so on. Don't get me wrong. The articles are very relevant and important but that's not an excuse for really poor loading times. There are people still put there on dial-up so don't be so western-centric on your design flaws ^^

MintPress is a great place to get news that you won't hear on larger networks. The journalism is top notch. I highly reccomend them to everyone I know. The app runs good for me. It can take a couple more seconds to load a screen than other apps.

The best and most reliable news source app, with trustworthy factual information!! Journalist Whitney Webb is the best!!

Somewhat slow to load but the app is dependable. Attractive and simple interface. Content includes articles and analysis that is ignored by mainstream media. Independent journalism makes a real difference.

Good source of alternative news. Apps needs work though.

About this app

MintPress News is an independent online journalism outlet providing issue-based-original reporting, in-depth investigations and thoughtful analysis of the most pressing topics facing our nation through the lens of social justice and human rights.

We offer coverage of national politics and policy, civil liberties, the war on drugs, foreign affairs, energy, lifestyle, culture, technology and the environment.

A fresh approach in a headline-driven industry, our reporting is an innovative form of journalism that goes beyond answering “who, what, when, where and why” of certain topics by connecting them to the ideas of social justice and human rights.

We’re a team of editors, writers, reporters, national and international correspondents and contributors based across the nation and world. Our masthead includes veteran journalists, war correspondents, grassroots leaders, political analysts, world renowned authors and academics.

We believe that news media has a social obligation in keeping people informed on subjects that directly and indirectly influence people now and in the future, while rigorously discussing policies to drive us in a better direction as a true democracy.

The journey to start MintPress began in late 2011; we officially went live February 2013. Our administrative office is located in Minneapolis, MN, however, our journalists, correspondents and several of our editors and staff are based across the nation and world in California, New York, Washington DC, Illinois, Tennessee, Mississippi, and other states, and in several countries across Europe, Africa & the Middle East.
