Launched in 2017 to "offer a sharp point of view, amplify underrepresented voices, shine a light on systemic inequality and skewer politicians when necessary," the site lasted only two years, despite building millions of left-leaning fans on social media, successfully defending itself against a $100 million defamation lawsuit and pissing off your buddy's racist uncle. But Splinter has returned with the same mission under new, independent ownership because The Truth (still) Hurts, and we need to keep telling it.

Your $5 monthly subscription will get you an ad-free experience, and help fund journalism like the on-the-ground reports Splinter has published from Lebanon and Ukraine to interviews with Gazans to coverage of the climate crisis that you won’t find in corporate media. Additionally, subscribers will have access to exclusive content, hear first about future Splinter events and will automatically be at the front of the line for them, and subscribers will also receive a free Splinter T-shirt. Those who subscribe for a full year will get a cool embroidered Splinter ball cap as well.
