About Us

Why Get Real?

Leveraging the latest technologies and local creator networks, Get Real is creating a new information superhighway—one that creates new local information hubs in places where newspapers have vanished and that supports existing newsrooms where they exist. We are delivering vital information in the way that today's audiences want to consume it, using voices they trust.

Think of us as a bridge, connecting hometown messengers with credible information about the things that matter most to your life and to your community. We are committed to providing quality information that is accessible to all Americans, especially in those places where local newspapers have closed.
