Newstapa is a nonprofit, nonpartisan independent news outlet operated
by Korea Center for Investigative Journalism (KCIJ).

'Newstapa' is a combination of 'news' and 'tapa(타파, 打破),' which means 'abolition’ in Korean. As the name implies, Newstapa aims to ‘abolish partisanship and commercialism in journalism’, which conceals truth and deceive the public.
