The company
Arctos Media LLC
Arctos Media LLC is an independent, ad-free American media company. It operates Pixel Politics, a reader-funded news network built on citations, archived sources, and public corrections.
The company exists to prove a simple idea: news can be honest, cited, and accessible, and still be worth your time. Every factual claim on our pages links a source, every original we rebut is archived before we touch it, and when we get something wrong it goes in the public corrections log. For the full picture, see about the newsroom, how we work, and our methodology.
Are you related to Arktos Media?
No. Arctos Media LLC has no affiliation, connection, or common ownership with the similarly named European publisher, and we see no reason to send readers their way. We chose our name before we knew they existed - "arctos" is simply the Greek word for bear, as in Ursus arctos - and when we learned the name had been spoken for, we decided to redefine it rather than abandon it.
So, plainly, here is what this Arctos stands for. Every person is entitled to dignity and fair treatment. Journalism that serves some people at the expense of others is not journalism - it is advocacy for a hierarchy. Hate and supremacy are not debatable positions here. Honest information is a public good, and putting more of it into the world is the reason this company exists. The full statement is on our values page.
If you landed here to check who we are before trusting us: good. That is exactly the habit we are trying to spread. Do not take our word for anything - the sources are on every page, the originals are archived, and the claims database shows every verdict we have published.
