Florida Phoenix
U.S. left
The Florida Phoenix is a nonprofit, ad-free digital news outlet covering Florida state government and politics, published under the States Newsroom network. It leans left editorially — Media Bias/Fact Check rates it Left Biased with high factual accuracy — and its reporting on the Trump administration's second term, including immigration enforcement and federal policy affecting Florida, has generally been critical. It is free to readers and funded entirely by grants and donations.
