I looked into what you meant about their "conspiracy-theory-friendly article history":
> People don’t trust the news media, and it’s easy to see why. Major news media organizations reported inaccurately that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. They dismissed as a “debunked conspiracy theory” the real possibility that COVID-19 could have escaped from a lab. And they have perpetuated misleading narratives around everything from rainforest destruction to biological sex to crime.
> In our short history, we have broken major stories, including on: wind industry threat to North Atlantic Right Whales; government censorship of Facebook; the origins of COVID-19; the cover-up of the origins of COVID-19; the Censorship Industrial Complex; UFO/UAP whistleblowers; the World Economic Forum; San Francisco’s illegal drug consumption site; the Twitter Files and the FBI; and Paul Pelosi’s alleged attacker.
