A Vision for Truth, Integrity, and Responsible Journalism
In an age where misinformation, bias, and sensationalism have eroded public trust in the media, the Common Sense News and Media Integrity Foundation was born out of a deep commitment to restoring ethical journalism. Our journey began with a simple yet powerful belief: news should inform, not manipulate; empower, not mislead; and uphold truth, not agendas.
How It All Began
The foundation was established by Tom Diamond AOL a molecular scientist, visionary leader, conservative advocate, socio-commentator, and citizens journalist based in South Africa . He recognized the growing crisis in news reporting—where political bias, corporate influence, and misinformation were shaping narratives rather than facts. We saw a need for a media platform that prioritizes common sense, fairness, and accountability over sensationalism and propaganda.
Our Mission
We are dedicated to promoting:
Fact-Based Journalism – Reporting that is truthful, transparent, and free from hidden agendas.
Media Integrity & Accountability – Holding media organizations to high ethical standards.
Freedom of Speech & Press – Advocating for independent journalism and resisting censorship.
Public Awareness & Media Literacy – Educating people on how to critically assess news and information.
Balanced, Conservative Perspectives – Providing a voice for underrepresented viewpoints in mainstream media.
Our Growth & Impact
From a small initiative, we have grown into a recognized voice for truth in journalism, developing media literacy programs, investigative journalism projects, and platforms for ethical reporting. We work with journalists, media houses, educators, and the public to restore trust in news and empower communities with accurate information.
The Road Ahead
Our journey is far from over. With your support, we aim to:
Expand our digital platforms to reach wider audiences with credible news.
Train and equip journalists with tools for ethical reporting.
Fight media bias and advocate for responsible journalism.
