US Now is an independent American digital news publication. We cover the stories that matter to people across the United States, from Washington and Wall Street to small towns and city halls, along with the world events that shape life here at home.

Our mission

We believe everyone deserves news that is accurate, fair and easy to understand. Our goal is to tell you what happened, why it matters and what comes next, quickly and without spin.

What we cover

  • U.S. and World: breaking news, communities, public safety and international affairs.
  • Politics: Congress, the White House, the courts, elections and state government.
  • Business: the economy, markets, jobs, personal finance and the companies that shape daily life.
  • Tech, Health and Science: discoveries, consumer technology, medicine and public health.
  • Sports and Entertainment: the games, the culture and the people behind them.
  • Analysis: explainers and analysis that put the news in context, always clearly labeled.

How we work

Every story on US Now is written or edited by a member of our editorial team and follows our Editorial Standards & Ethics. We check facts before we publish, name and link to our sources whenever we can, and never republish other outlets’ articles as our own. When we get something wrong, we fix it and say so, as described in our Corrections Policy.

Stories credited to US Now Staff are written and edited by our newsroom. They draw on official sources and on reporting by other news organizations, which each story names and links to in its Sources box. Explainers and analysis carry a label so you can tell them apart from straight news reports.

Ownership and funding

US Now is independently owned and operated. We are funded by advertising and by clearly labeled sponsored content. Advertisers and sponsors have no influence over our news coverage; see our Sponsored Content Policy for how we keep paid content separate.
