Drop Site News is a nonprofit, investigative news outlet founded by Ryan Grim and Jeremy Scahill in July 2024 that is based in Washington, D.C.[1][2][3][4] Both formerly worked at The Intercept, which had seen significant staff turmoil and departures in the preceding months.[5][6] The board of The Intercept previously rejected an offer from Grim and Scahill to take over the company.[6]
The Intercept provided startup funding for Drop Site News.[5][7]
On July 8, 2024, a sharing social networking service owned by Meta Platforms that hosts videos and photographs, Instagram, took down several interviews about the war in Gaza that were posted by Democracy Now!. The takedown notice by Instagram stated that the interviews that were removed included "symbols, praise, or support of people and organizations we define as dangerous".[7] An interview by Amy Goodman of Scahill was among those interviews that were taken down by Instagram. The subject of her interview of Scahill was his interviews of Hamas officials for Drop Site News.
