About

Our Mission: The Erie Wire is beholden to the public interest to disseminate unfiltered information: i.e. without the influence of advertising, unofficial sources, ‘flak’ (a form of scaremongering), and/or the overwhelming onslaught of ‘doublespeak’ that too often detracts from the subject at hand. As an independent company, we believe the complexities of the private and public sectors which govern our lives must remain true to a moral character; and, therefore, be subject to a constant public review.

In addition to our own work, we follow the best investigative news agencies on the web, and syndicate their reports based on reader interest in google analytics. This ensures our readers are kept up-to-date on breakthrough investigations. To learn more about these publications check out the “Investigative Newswire” real-time tweets on the bottom left hand of every page in eriewire.org.

Founded in 2008: Objectivity is first and foremost. We investigate stories alongside a professional ethic, that asks of the reporting body to be honest and unbiased when holding the candle to an unjust action. Our team works diligently to uphold the privilege and duties of a free press, and to remain impartial. Although, at times the party in question will remain silent, and in some cases for reasons unbeknownst to the reporting body. Our efforts allow for any unreported agency to respond upon an adverse topic before the publication deadline. No depiction can be perfect, so we strive to expedite any corrections. If you feel your voice has not been clearly expressed, please refer to our Editorial Department on the contact page.

    Is the co-founder of The Erie Wire. You can find him with a heavy hand of coffee asking about the genius of Lewis Carrol, reading into environmental injustices and exploring the "cardboard orange" art movement — a 'Runcible' growth of color and song in the Midwest. He's currently preoccupied documenting the stories of Erie County, OH, but balances his time alongside volunteer work for the community.
