Media Matters for America

Media Matters for America is a progressive nonprofit media watchdog founded in 2004 by David Brock and funded primarily by liberal donors. Its stated mission is to monitor and correct what it describes as conservative misinformation in U.S. media, and its coverage consistently challenges right-wing media figures and conservative political actors. Under the second Trump administration, the organization has been broadly critical of the administration while simultaneously facing government investigations, lawsuits, and serious financial pressure that forced staff cuts and raised questions about its survival.
