Speaking Truth To Power
Note from the editor

Rantt Media launched in 2016 with one goal in mind — to deliver readers news and analysis the right way. No clickbait, no both-sideism, and no sensationalism. At Rantt, we write context-rich articles that focus only on the most important stories of our time. Our principles that guide us: That coverage is always dictated by context, and not by clicks. That there is a fine line between being objective and being complicit, and that our job in the fourth estate is to never be the latter. That we must tell the truth as ferociously as those whose aim it is to mislead the people sell their lies. And lastly, that while those in power disregard the people they serve we will always be there to speak truth to them — If you are looking to get in touch please drop a line at BeHeard@Rantt.com.
