Independent Political Report
American digital newspaper
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Independent Political Report (sometimes referred to as IPR) is an American political digital newspaper focusing on independent politicians and third parties in the United States. The website was founded by libertarian activist Thomas L. Knapp in 2008,[1][2] and is administered by the Outsider Media Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization focused on providing media coverage to third party politicians.[3][4] It was described as a "starkly conservative-leaning website" in 2018 and was sued by the Las Vegas Review-Journal for copyright infringement during the 2010 election cycle.[5][6]
