Outlet track record
North Carolina Department of Public Safety
North Carolina state government agency (under Democratic governor)
The North Carolina Department of Public Safety (NCDPS) is a state executive agency, not a media outlet — it publishes press releases, crime statistics, and public safety reports as its primary communications. It operates under Democratic Governor Josh Stein, who took office in January 2025, and cooperates with federal agencies on law enforcement grants and disaster response while functioning independently of Trump administration policy priorities. Its public communications reflect the priorities of the Stein administration rather than the federal government.
