Malone News
Independent journalism. Scientific insight. Uncompromising analysis.

About Malone News
Malone News is an independent news, investigative reporting, and commentary publication founded and published by Robert W. Malone, MD, MS, and Jill Glasspool Malone, PhD.
With around 350,000 subscribers, Malone News has grown into a publication covering far more than the medical and scientific controversies that first brought many readers here. Today, our reporting and analysis span public health, government accountability, biotechnology, bioethics, regulatory policy, politics, agriculture, food systems, economics, culture, and individual liberty.
Our mission is straightforward: Follow the evidence, ask difficult questions, investigate the exercise of power, and publish what we find.
We believe journalism should challenge institutions rather than serve them. Government agencies, corporations, universities, pharmaceutical companies, political organizations, and the media itself all deserve scrutiny, particularly when their decisions affect the health, freedom, and well-being of ordinary Americans.
And that scrutiny does not stop when the people involved happen to share our political views.
Malone News is not a public relations operation for any political party, administration, corporation, or movement. Sometimes our reporting challenges the political left. Sometimes it challenges the right. And sometimes it challenges individuals and organizations we otherwise support.
We have our own perspectives, convictions, and experiences, and we make no secret of them. But those convictions do not excuse us from examining the evidence or asking uncomfortable questions.
Our loyalty is to the facts and to our readers, not to protecting a political tribe.
That approach does not always make us popular, and it certainly doesn’t get us invited to many Washington galas. But popularity has never been our objective.
What We Cover
Malone News brings scientific expertise, investigative research, historical context, and independent analysis to stories that deserve closer examination.
Medicine, Science, and Public Health
We examine medical research, clinical evidence, biotechnology, pharmaceutical development, vaccine policy, public health institutions, and the ethical questions surrounding modern medicine. Our scientific backgrounds allow us to examine technical claims and regulatory decisions with a depth that is often missing from general news coverage.
Government and Regulatory Accountability
We investigate federal agencies, regulatory decisions, conflicts of interest, institutional failures, government spending, and the relationships among policymakers, industry, and organizations entrusted with protecting the public.
Politics and Public Policy
We cover domestic and international political developments, legislation, constitutional questions, government transparency, censorship, civil liberties, and the growing influence of powerful institutions over everyday life.
Investigative Reporting and Media Accountability
We follow financial relationships, examine official claims, investigate overlooked developments, and question narratives that have become accepted without sufficient scrutiny. We also examine the media industry itself, including its financial incentives, conflicts of interest, and relationships with government and corporate power.
Agriculture, Food, and the Environment
We investigate food safety, farming practices, pesticides, agricultural consolidation, food production, environmental policy, and the consequences of decisions made far from the farms and communities they affect.
Homesteading, Health, and Independent Living
Alongside our news coverage, we publish practical essays on farming, livestock, gardening, nutrition, wellness, self-reliance, family, and community. These subjects reflect our conviction that identifying problems is only part of the job. Building healthier, more resilient lives matters just as much.
Malone News also publishes guest writers and commentators who bring additional expertise, experience, and perspectives to our coverage. Opinions expressed by contributors are their own.
Our Editorial Principles
The modern information environment is saturated with press releases, political messaging, corporate communications, and headlines designed to provoke an emotional response. Too often, journalism has become the business of repeating what powerful institutions want the public to believe.
We believe readers deserve better.
Our reporting and analysis draw on primary documents, scientific literature, government records, public statements, historical research, interviews, and other available evidence. We seek to distinguish established facts from interpretations, unanswered questions, and informed speculation.
Scientific credentials do not guarantee that someone is correct. Peer review is not a substitute for critical thinking. Government authority does not confer infallibility, and political agreement does not excuse misconduct.
We believe informed debate requires intellectual honesty, including the willingness to acknowledge uncertainty, consider competing explanations, and revise conclusions when new evidence becomes available.
We also distinguish between news reporting, investigative analysis, and opinion. Readers should understand when we are presenting documented facts, interpreting evidence, or expressing a personal judgment.
Editorial Independence
Malone News is primarily reader-supported. Paid subscriptions help fund our research, reporting, investigations, writing, and publishing operations. We also occasionally accept paid advertising, which is presented to free subscribers and does not influence our editorial decisions.
Our founders have professional affiliations, advisory responsibilities, and commercial relationships, which are disclosed below. Those relationships do not determine our editorial positions or exempt affiliated organizations from scrutiny.
We do not accept the premise that independence requires having no opinions or professional experience. It requires the freedom to report and publish without surrendering editorial judgment to outside interests.
Corrections and Accountability
We welcome documented corrections, substantive challenges, and new evidence that may alter our reporting or conclusions. Material factual errors brought to our attention will be reviewed and corrected transparently.
We hold public institutions accountable, and our readers have every right to hold us accountable as well.
The People Behind Malone News
Robert W. Malone, MD, MS | Co-founder, Co-publisher, Writer, Analyst, and Editor
Dr. Robert Malone is a physician-scientist, bioethicist, author, and public-policy commentator whose career spans molecular biology, clinical research, vaccine development, biotechnology, biodefense, and public health policy.
His early scientific work contributed to the development of mRNA and DNA vaccination and non-viral gene-delivery technologies. He holds numerous domestic and international patents and has authored approximately 100 peer-reviewed scientific publications.
He received his medical degree from Northwestern University, completed the Harvard Medical School Global Clinical Scholars Research Training program, and trained at UC Davis, UC San Diego, and the Salk Institute.
His career has included biotechnology development, academic research, government advisory service, and testimony or presentations before the U.S. Congress, European Parliament, UK Parliament, and other national legislatures.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, his criticism of vaccine policy, regulatory decisions, censorship, and the erosion of informed consent brought him into the public debate. That experience helped establish the foundation for Malone News as a publication concerned not only with medicine, but also with institutional accountability, scientific integrity, and the relationship between government power and individual freedom.
Jill Glasspool Malone, PhD | Co-founder, Co-publisher, Writer, Analyst, and Editor
Dr. Jill Malone is a scientist, author, researcher, and writer who plays a central role in the research, editorial development, publishing, and business operations of Malone News.
She has worked alongside Robert throughout much of his scientific and professional career. Her contributions include investigative research, original reporting and analysis, writing, editing, and the development of stories across the publication’s areas of coverage. Much of her work takes place behind the scenes, although she also writes for the publication.
Together, Robert and Jill direct the editorial and publishing work of Malone News.
They also jointly manage The Malone Institute, a separate 501(c)(3) educational nonprofit organization.
Beyond the Newsroom
Robert and Jill have been together since high school and operate a working horse farm in Virginia. Their experience with farming, livestock, land management, food production, and building a homestead informs much of the publication’s coverage of agriculture, health, and independent living.
They are the authors of Homesteading for Health (2026), which explores the connections among food, physical and mental health, family, community, and self-reliance.
For them, homesteading is not an escape from modern life. It is one way of applying the principles we frequently write about: personal responsibility, practical knowledge, independence, and the importance of strong families and communities.
We believe in modern science, useful technology, and medicine that genuinely improves human health. We also believe that much of the knowledge required to live healthy, productive, independent lives should never have been abandoned.
Why Independent Journalism Matters
The modern information environment is dominated by powerful institutions with enormous financial resources, political influence, and the ability to shape public opinion.
Government agencies, pharmaceutical companies, technology platforms, universities, major media organizations, and advocacy groups all compete to influence what the public sees, hears, and believes.
Many perform legitimate and valuable work. But they also have financial interests, political priorities, institutional loyalties, and reputations to protect.
Independent journalism provides an essential counterweight.
Malone News exists because important stories should not depend on whether they are convenient for a political party, acceptable to a corporate sponsor, or consistent with an approved institutional narrative.
Our readers make that independence possible.
Paid subscriptions support the time-consuming work of reviewing scientific studies, examining government documents, investigating claims, conducting interviews, following developing stories, and publishing analysis that often requires substantial specialized knowledge.
We do not expect every reader to agree with every article. Disagreement is part of serious intellectual debate, and we encourage readers to examine the evidence for themselves.
We would rather lose a few subscribers by reporting an uncomfortable truth or opinion, than keep them by withholding it.
