Mediacités

Mediacités is an online media outlet publishing investigative and explanatory stories on political, economic, social, cultural, and sports events. It sheds light on these issues and seeks to explain them pedagogically by returning to the fundamentals of journalism. The organisation believes that no action or informed choice can exist without rigorous and independent information. This principle is applied in each local, regional, and national investigative story.Mediacités is a multi-city media outlet that focuses on France's major cities (Lille, Lyon, Toulouse, and Nantes) in response to the lack of investigative journalism on regional issues by the national press and the lack of investigative journalism conducted by local media.Furthermore, the decentralisation and rise of metropolises have led to the emergence of strong powers (political and economic) with no real media counter-power.Mediacités describes itself as an independent media outlet without advertising and links to industrial groups, opposing sensationalism and favouring in-depth reporting over the continuous flow of information.It aims to be at the service of its readers. By publishing its investigations and putting them up for public discussion, Mediacités seeks to participate in the democratic debate.
