Description

The Raw Story is a left-leaning news and politics weblog founded in 2004. Updated continuously, it is known primarily for its speedy investigative reporting. In addition to breaking news, Raw Story has pointed out fraudulent and manipulated news stories carried by other web sites, such as the Drudge Report. The Raw Story currently covers daily local, world and economic news and publishes its own editorials and investigative pieces. Raw was the first US media outlet to publish the Downing Street memo, an account of secret meetings between US and UK officials in the lead-up to the Iraq war, and the first to reveal the Iran-related work of outed CIA officer Valerie Plame Wilson.

According to their own masthead, Raw Story has been reported and featured in The New York Times, The Guardian, LA Weekly, the New York Post, the Toronto Star, The Hill, Rolling Stone, The Advocate, Roll Call, and Hustler.

Boasting an average 3.6 million readers, the site is quoted by Newsweek as, "Muck, raked: If you're looking for alleged GOP malfeasance, the folks at rawstory.com are frequently scooping the mainstream media."
