Our Mission

Through profiles, reporting, and analysis, BraveNews.eu offers unique insight into how stories are developed, framed, and challenged — serving both journalists and readers seeking a deeper understanding of the Brussels media environment.

BraveNews.eu treats the press corps as a subject in its own right: not gossip, not access journalism, and not institutional PR.

Our Niche

While most EU-focused outlets report on policy and institutions, BraveNews.eu reports on the journalists and media structures shaping those narratives.

Our Principles

  • Independence: No paid access to journalists and no sponsored editorial content.
  • Transparency: Editorial decisions are made solely by journalists.
  • Integrity: Fact-checked reporting aimed at strengthening understanding of the media ecosystem.

Our motto: Reporting on the reporters shaping Europe.
