Carolina Public Press is a left-leaning newspaper organization based in the Western part of North Carolina. They were founded in 2011 as a project of “The Institute for Southern Studies,” an advocacy organization that has started several other left-leaning organizations throughout the South including Brown Lung Association, The Miami Workers Center, North Carolina Asian Americans Together, Southerners for Economic Justice, and Facing South.

While Carolina Public Press states it is nonpartisan, it receives substantial funds from progressive organizations, including the Facebook Journalism Project, the Knight Foundation, and the Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation.
