FEMA
U.S. federal government agency (executive branch, not an independent news outlet)
FEMA is a U.S. government agency inside the Department of Homeland Security, not an independent news organization. What it publishes is official agency communication, so it reflects the policies and messaging of the sitting administration. Its current output generally presents the Trump administration's approach to disaster response, including its push to shift more responsibility to states, in a favorable light.
Owned byOwned and operated by the U.S. federal government as a component of the Department of Homeland Security. It is not a media company. Its communications (fema.gov, press releases, social media, the Ready.gov campaign) are controlled by the agency under DHS and the executive branch.
