Independent New Hampshire Journalism · Northfield, NHAbout Granite State Report
Independent accountability journalism for New Hampshire.
Granite State Report is independent civic accountability journalism for New Hampshire. It is founded and edited by Dexter Dow and run as a one-person newsroom. It is not a party organ, not a campaign, and not owned by anyone with a stake in the coverage.
What we cover
The beat is the machinery of public life in New Hampshire and whether it works the way it is supposed to: the Right-to-Know Law and public records, town and state government, policing and criminal justice, the courts, and public spending, including how schools are funded. When a document says one thing and an official says another, the document wins.
How we work
Every claim that carries weight is checked against a primary source — the statute, the filing, the record itself — not a second-hand summary. Quotes are reproduced accurately or paraphrased and labeled as such. Errors are corrected in the open under a published corrections policy. The writing is direct on purpose; the sourcing is careful for the same reason.
Who runs this, and who pays for it
Granite State Report is owned and operated by its editor, Dexter Dow. It is not backed by a corporation, a political party, a political action committee, or a candidate, and it does not answer to advertisers who could steer coverage. News is reported and opinion is labeled as opinion; the two are not blended to pass one off as the other. Any personal connection to a story is disclosed inside that story.
Get involved
Send a tip or a document, point out a story worth chasing, or flag a correction — readers regularly know things the newsroom does not. You can also sign up for email updates to get new reporting as it publishes. Reach the newsroom at granitestatereport@gmail.com.
