It has never been more important to know how to choose and verify your sources of information. Indeed, in the era of fake news<\/em>, AI-generated content and deliberately misleading discourse, it is imperative to support free and independent journalism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So here are three independent media outlets we wanted to highlight. At Rorqual Studio, we've subscribed to their newsletters. We can only recommend you do the same, if you haven't already.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vert<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A media outlet specialized in environmental and climate news, founded by Loup Espargili\u00e8re and Juliette Quef in 2018, Vert<\/em> offers investigations, reports and analyses on ecological issues, energy transition and environmental policies in France and Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Newsletter:<\/strong> Vert<\/em> offers several newsletter formats including a daily and a weekly, as well as two specific ones: \"Chaleurs actuelles\" to combat climate skeptics, and \"C'\u00e9tait mieux apr\u00e8s\" dedicated to their podcast. The newsletters are concise, well-structured and offer a selection of articles as well as relevant external links on environmental news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reporterre<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Reporterre<\/em> is an independent non-profit media outlet, with free access, no ads, funded by reader donations and founded by Herv\u00e9 Kempf. Originally launched as a print magazine in 1989, it relaunched on the web in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A pioneer of environmental journalism in France, Reporterre<\/em> defines itself as \"the daily of ecology.\" The media outlet covers the environment, climate, biodiversity, environmental activism and local alternatives with a rigorous approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Newsletter:<\/strong> Reporterre<\/em> sends a very popular free newsletter (daily and\/or weekly), presenting the day's articles in a sober and efficient manner. It's one of the most followed environmental newsletters in France, with a simple format that prioritizes editorial content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Basta!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

An independent media outlet focused on social, ecological and democratic issues, Basta!<\/em> highlights alternatives, social struggles and citizen initiatives. The media is run by a non-profit association (Alter-m\u00e9dias) and operated by a team of 9 employees. Without advertising or subscription, the publication is funded at 85% by donations from its readers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Newsletter:<\/strong> Basta!<\/em> offers different newsletter formats including weekly and monthly. Our favorite is called \"Chez les ind\u00e9s\" which offers every Friday the best articles from the independent press to discover in 5 minutes (and which also exists for international media with \"Chez les ind\u00e9s - International\").<\/p>\n\n\n\n
