More than 200,000 people had canceled their digital subscriptions by midday Monday, according to two people at the paper with knowledge of internal matters. Not all cancellations take effect immediately. Still, the figure represents about 8% of the paper’s paid circulation of 2.5 million subscribers, which includes print as well. The number of cancellations continued to grow Monday afternoon.

    And here’s their site: https://www.propublica.org/

    Some reasons I think they’re neat:

    1. They broke the Justice Thomas corruption scandal
    2. Generally high level investigative journalism
    3. They’re free and donation based, not subscription based
    4. No bullshit, just journalism
    5. They take an active interest in the Fediverse - it seems they’re willing to meet me where I am.
