The Young Turks is the longest-running news show online celebrating 22 years despite a challenging media landscape. Every day Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian cover news and politics with their bold commentary and courageous coverage of the issues that matter, with the mission to drive positive change in the world.
The Young Turks strive to stand apart from their contemporaries in the media. They report on the news that most impact average viewers and provide detailed nuanced analysis of issues like police brutality, education, healthcare, and keep viewers informed on the state of the 2024 election.
The mainstream media often lets important news stories slip out of circulation. Instead, they tend to hyper-fixate on inconsequential topics while ignoring the issues that really matter. In contrast, The Young Turks keeps essential stories at the forefront, where they belong, and covers stories that corporate media would never dare to discuss. We believe that challenging the establishment makes you a better journalist, not a worse one.
