The Nevada News Bureau (NNB) is an independent, non-partisan news service covering the statehouse and state politics in Nevada.  We endorse the Code of Ethics of the Society of Professional Journalists and adhere to no political philosophy other than a belief in fair, accurate reporting and open government.  Ethical, transparent governance is an American ideal, and one we believe is embraced and much needed by citizens of all political persuasions.

Bureau Locations & Distribution

The Nevada News Bureau has offices in Carson City and Las Vegas.  We also publish the work of freelance journalists located around the state.  Our content is distributed through (1) a free news wire service to Nevada’s media outlets, (2) publication on this website and (3) a free e-Brief available by e-subscription.  (Readers can sign up for the e-Briefs on our Home page.)   Email alerts are also available for those who wish to be “pinged” each time a story or blog post is published.

Why does Nevada need another news outlet?

Budget constraints and faltering business models have forced the owners/publishers of many of Nevada’s print, online and broadcast media outlets to lay off experienced staff.  This has resulted in unfortunate cutbacks to both statehouse and local news reporting. The Nevada News Bureau exists to provide free, quality news content to other media outlets as well as to its own readers.

Funding

The Nevada News Bureau is a project of Citizen Outreach, a 501(c)(3) exempt organization that is supported by a variety of private grants and the generous donations of its supporters.  Not all donors and supporters request anonymity, but in many cases we must honor the wishes of our donors and keep their identity confidential.

Who is using or talking about NNB‘s content?

Our stories and news alerts have been either published, mentioned or linked to by numerous Nevada news publications including the Las Vegas Sun, Las Vegas Review Journal, Nevada Appeal, Las Vegas CityLife, Las Vegas Tribune, Elko Daily Free Press, and Lahontan Valley News as well as by news and talk radio stations like KXNT, KELY and KWNA.
