Frog News

https://frognews.bg/

The media outlet covers news, culture, and lifestyle; however, it stands for its investigative articles on law and crime, including prosecution, court, and police activities. It was founded in 2007 by Bulgarian investigative journalist Ognyan Stefanov.

Stefanov was brutally attacked in 2008 due to his investigations.

"The goal of the media outlet is to be independent and to stay behind our society's interests only," the founder explained. Frog News strives to provide quality information to readers while abiding by the highest journalist standards.

"The Frog News team strives to present learned information originally, to wake up, not put readers to bed. We do not avoid scandals, but look for them; if they are hidden, we provoke them to come to light," the website states.
