Fairness & Accuracy In Reporting (FAIR) is a progressive media watchdog organization founded in 1986 by Jeff Cohen and Martin A. Lee. It monitors U.S. news media for bias, omissions, inaccuracies, and censorship in coverage of social, political, and international issues. FAIR advocates for greater diversity of perspectives in journalism, challenges corporate media influence, and promotes underrepresented voices. The organization produces reports, action alerts, and critiques through publications like Extra! magazine and its online presence to hold media accountable and encourage fairer reporting. FAIR's work includes detailed analyses of media coverage on topics like labor rights, foreign policy, and civil liberties, often highlighting progressive viewpoints. As a nonprofit, it relies on donations and memberships to maintain independence from corporate funding. FAIR has been influential in media activism since its inception, contributing to broader discussions on media ethics and democracy.
