About Us

The Epoch Times is the fastest-growing independent news media in America. We are nonpartisan and dedicated to truthful reporting.


We are free from the influence of any government, corporation, or political party—this is what makes us different from other media organizations. Our goal is to bring our readers accurate information so they can form their own opinions about the most significant topics of our time.


We don’t follow the unhealthy trend of agenda-driven journalism prevalent in today’s media environment.


Instead, we use our principles of Truth and Tradition as our guiding light. We highlight in our reporting the best of humanity, the valuable lessons of history, and traditions that are beneficial for society.


The Epoch Times was founded in the United States in the year 2000 in response to communist repression and censorship in China. Our founders, Chinese-Americans who themselves had fled communism, sought to create an independent media to bring the world uncensored and truthful information.


The Epoch Times has received numerous awards for our reporting and design, including from the New York Press Association, the Society of Professional Journalists, and the Society for News Design.


The Epoch Times’ media network currently covers 21 languages and 33 countries.

What Readers Say about The Epoch Times

I love The Epoch Times. Even though I receive three other national papers, none are as balanced, interesting and provocative than The Epoch Times.

I think your coverage is thoughtful and balanced in a way that I haven't seen elsewhere. And I say this, by the way, as a former senior vice president of CBS News so I know a lot about media and journalism, I would say.

The Epoch Times is a great place where you can understand traditional values in a way and in a tone and through the content that is accessible. It's smart.

Real Journalism! No Fake News! Get details of the story and make up your own mind on facts, not fiction.
— Louis J White
This is the best source of information, the best newspaper, ever. The variety of authors gives me a better perspective of life as it is worth living, yet the quality of writing stays high. My local leftist paper, The Modesto Bee, is written with the vocabulary of a 13-year-old, The Epoch Times is not. I bought a subscription for my parents, they both love it. I am considering gifting it to more. Everyone should subscribe because The Epoch Times covers subjects found almost nowhere else and details found completely nowhere else.

I was starving for independent reporting. I was sick and tired of the "editorial" reporting – not the facts, but the media's opinionated reporting and their interpretation or "take" on the facts, rather than the actual facts. I found that in THE EPOCH TIMES! I thought that "news" had been lost forever . . . but then I saw The Epoch Times. Love this read, even if I hate what is going on right now in our country!

FAQ

1. The Epoch Times is the first and only media that exposes the true nature, impact, and ultimate goal of communism. We explain its damage to our moral foundation and to Eastern and Western traditions. We also discuss the outcomes of socialism and its impact on countries’ economic and political stability. We believe that media has a duty to be upright and responsible to society.

2. While six corporations own 90 percent of media outlets in the United States (according to Business Insider), The Epoch Times is independent of any influence from corporations, governments, or political parties. Our only goal is to bring our readers accurate information and to be responsible to the public.

3. The Epoch Times is nonpartisan and values-based. We believe true journalism is based on moral principles. We focus on important issues and on policies and their impact, not partisanship. We report the truth in the midst of the biased media environment. We don’t follow the unethical trend of agenda-driven journalism, but instead use our principles of Truth and Tradition as our guiding light to report honestly.

The Epoch Times is driven by its mission, not by money.

One of the biggest threats we face is the struggle between freedom and communism. Many Americans haven’t realized or paid much attention to this struggle, but it’s a battle The Epoch Times has been covering from the front lines for the past 19 years. We are happy that more and more people have begun to pay close attention to this threat.

The biggest socialist/communist regime on this planet is the Chinese Communist regime, which is one of the biggest threats to the free world. We at The Epoch Times know well its true nature.

Our efforts alone are not enough. We need you to be a part of this journey.

By coming together, we can win this battle for our country’s freedom. Subscribing to The Epoch Times will equip you and your communities with the facts that can help you make up your own mind and contribute positively to society.
