Get Real News


  • About Us

    Get Real is America’s first grassroots newsroom—powered by we the people.

    We are a team of media, technology and business entrepreneurs who have a simple but revolutionary idea: We think access to vital information should not be an advantage for the few but a fundamental right of the many.

    We’re not just creating another information platform – but a modern movement propelled by you and your community. Think of us as a bridge connecting hometown messengers with verified facts about stuff that’s actually relevant to your life and your community.

    By building outside of paywalls we will make quality information transparent and accessible to all Americans, especially those living in communities whose local newspapers have closed.
