About Us
What We Stand For — And Who We Write For
Tangent Weekly is an independent, U.S.-focused digital news organization committed to delivering journalism that informs, investigates, and illuminates. Our mission is to tell the stories that shape American life — from Capitol Hill to the Gulf Coast — with clarity, depth, and journalistic care.
We believe in fact-first reporting, public accountability, and thoughtful analysis that respects the reader's time. In a fast-moving media landscape, we prioritize what matters — not what trends.
Our Editorial Approach
We cover the full sweep of American news: national politics, business and the economy, science and technology, culture, social movements, and more. We aim to explain not just what’s happening — but why it matters.
Our newsroom follows a simple principle: context over chaos. Whether we’re reporting on legislation, climate impact, civil rights, or community issues, we strive to cut through noise with reporting that’s honest, direct, and relevant.
We Focus On:
- Daily news and in-depth coverage of U.S. politics, policy, and governance
- Investigative journalism on issues affecting American communities and institutions
- Feature stories that amplify local voices and overlooked perspectives
- Opinion pieces and explainers grounded in fact and open debate
- Clean, responsive, mobile-first reading experiences — free from clutter or distraction
Our editorial model is reader-first: no paywalls, no clickbait, and no hidden sponsors.

Whether you live in a small town, a major city, or somewhere in between, we aim to serve you with news that informs, not inflames.
