Correctiv.org is the first charitable research centre in Germany that is funded by membership fees, private donations and foundation benefits - and thus is independent from advertisment and sales.
Correctiv.org passes its researches and stories in cooperations to larger and smaller newspapers and magazines as well as to radio and TV stations - researches and stories that try to reveal nuisances and defend democratic standards in a sustained manner. David Schraven is the executive secretary of the journalistic portal that was founded in 2014, Markus Grill its chief editor.
