What it does
The Intercept covers US politics, national security, policing and international affairs through investigations, reported stories and commentary.
The homepage brings policy disputes together with document-based and on-the-ground reporting. Readers comparing coverage can use its investigations as a starting point, then distinguish the reported evidence from the publication's analysis and opinion. An email prompt to keep reading appeared on the site. Readers can separate Special Investigations from Voices and podcasts when choosing between reported material, argument and discussion.
