Updated:

Why does the Epoch Times exist? Because of the dedication of its staff to truthful, unbiased, non-partisan old-school journalism, traditional values, and an enhanced appreciation of freedom of speech due to many staff members having lived under the tyranny of Communist rule.

Those are the high-profile reasons. The foundational reason, however, is that The Epoch Times is the only newspaper in the world that dares to blow the whistle on Communist China’s ongoing persecution of its prisoners of conscience, the brutality of which is unrivaled in the history of mankind.
