NEWS WITHOUT CORPORATE BIAS All content comes from news outlets that are financially independent. No corporate owners. No institutional bias. No conflicts of interest. OVERLOOKED STORIES THAT MATTER We feature investigative reporting and stories about climate, democracy, justice, labor, and other important topics. We have a special focus on voices traditionally underrepresented in the media industry. CURATED BY JOURNALISTS A diverse team of experienced journalists hand-curates the news of the day, not corporate algorithms designed to boost profitable content. PERSONALIZED EXPERIENCE Follow outlets and individual journalists to create your own personalized feed. PROTECTING YOUR DATA OptOut respects your privacy by design and does not sell your preferences or browsing history to advertising firms. A NONPROFIT RUN BY JOURNALISTS This app is a project of the OptOut Media Foundation, a nonprofit charity founded and led by journalists, not Big Tech. We’re funded by grants and by you, our audience, not corporations or Wall Street. Opt Out of the corporate media. Opt in to independent news you can trust.

Reviews of OptOut News

Leave a Review OptOut News
  • Too slow

    I usually just see a “loading” screen. It eventually goes away, but takes way too long.
  • Kind of pokey

    I like being exposed to some publications I haven’t seen before, but the app is kind of slow in comparison to the RSS feeds I follow with Inoreader.
  • Collects your data

    Disappointed to see from reading their privacy policy that they collect far more personal data than their App Privacy Details suggest. Hard pass.
