Background

Tech Times was founded in 2012 by Sung Kim in New York City as a digital-native outlet covering technology, science, health, and consumer electronics. The outlet has remained independently operated under Sung Kim's leadership, with no reported acquisition by a larger media group or significant outside investment. It employs roughly 25 staff and generates revenue almost entirely through programmatic and direct digital advertising across desktop and mobile platforms. The site draws the majority of its traffic through organic search, reflecting a model built around SEO-optimized technology coverage. Bias-rating services such as Biasly give it a near-center score (approximately 4% center), and major fact-checking aggregators such as Media Bias/Fact Check have not yet assigned it a formal rating, while Ground News lists its factuality as unknown. Tech Times has not been associated with notable editorial controversies or significant shifts in ownership. Its reporting on the Trump administration's second term focuses on technology-adjacent issues—AI policy, semiconductor trade, cybersecurity executive orders, and tech-sector regulation—rather than broad political commentary, and the tone is predominantly straight-news rather than opinion-driven.
