Submit a Tip

Your voice matters. The most impactful stories in journalism have started with a single person who decided the public deserved to know the truth. If you have information about corruption, fraud, abuse of power, or wrongdoing that is being covered up, we want to hear from you.

What we investigate — We focus on stories that hold power accountable: government misconduct, corporate malfeasance, institutional cover-ups, misuse of public funds, civil rights violations, and systemic failures that affect everyday people. If those in power are doing something wrong and the public needs to know, that is exactly the kind of story we pursue.

What makes a strong tip — The best tips include specific, verifiable details. Documents, records, photographs, names, dates, and locations all strengthen a story. Even if you only have a piece of the puzzle, it may connect to something we are already investigating.

How to reach us — Email your tip to tips@crowdsourcedcriticism.com. For sensitive information, we recommend using an encrypted email service or a secondary email account not connected to your identity or workplace.

Your protection is our priority — We never reveal a source without their explicit consent. We do not log IP addresses on tip submissions. If you request anonymity, we will honor that request absolutely. No story is worth endangering someone who trusted us with the truth.

What happens next — Our editorial team reviews every submission. If your tip warrants investigation, a reporter may reach out for follow-up questions or additional documentation. We will only contact you using the method you specify. Some investigations take weeks or months. Not every tip leads to a published story, but every submission is taken seriously and treated with the confidentiality it deserves.

The powerful rely on silence. When you speak up, you give a voice to everyone they hoped would never find out. Thank you for trusting Crowdsourced Criticism.
