NEW YORK — Today, The Epoch Times — an independent media organization dedicated to delivering value-driven journalism that informs, inspires and provides clarity — announced that it will offer free digital access for students. Effective immediately, students can sign up for a free digital subscription to The Epoch Times for up to five years, accessing daily briefings, breaking news alerts, exclusive documentaries, special reports and much more.

The student subscription, which includes web and app access on any device, can be found here.

At a time when young people are navigating a cluttered, confusing information landscape, The Epoch Times strives to make independent, fact-based journalism more accessible to student learners. Supporting the next generation of deep thinkers, The Epoch Times’ digital content allows students to engage with journalism that emphasizes nuance, critical thinking and deeper understanding of global issues as they navigate algorithm-driven news feeds. From investigations and documentaries to long-form journalism, The Epoch Times is committed to investing in the next generation of informed U.S. citizens.

Led by Editor-in-Chief Jasper Fakkert, senior editor Jan Jekielek, senior investigative reporter Joshua Philipp and other experts, The Epoch Times’ hard-hitting news delivery features in-depth, never-before-seen storylines in line with the organization’s decades-old legacy of independent discovery. Dating back to 2003, when The Epoch Times broke the news of the SARS epidemic in China weeks before Beijing admitted to the public health crisis, the organization has never been afraid to deliver the truth even when it is inconvenient. From its China expertise to the truth behind “Russiagate” and the launch of Epoch Health in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, The Epoch Times explores a wide range of hot-button topics, spanning various platforms.

“America’s media environment has never been more complex, and The Epoch Times’ mission is to support young readers in their search for truth,” said Hadas Slonim, senior marketing director at The Epoch Times. “We are proud to offer students free access to the digital Epoch Times for up to five years, helping them develop key media literacy skills in a rapidly changing world. As an independent media organization, it is our duty to inform the next generation of U.S. citizens by investing in them. Our democracy needs more civic participation, not less, and that means accessing the best possible information. Students deserve the truth, and they can count on The Epoch Times to deliver it.”
