The Connecticut Independentis a modern digital publication based in Connecticut, operating with a clear, independent perspective.
Our mission is to deliver engaging and accessible content in two primary areas. First, we provide in-depth, "local's look" guides to our home state. Second, we use that same independent lens to report on broader topics and public figures for a global audience.
Our brand is built on respecting our readers' time. We are committed to sourced facts in our reporting and transparent, insightful analysis in our feature breakdowns
We focus on three main pillars that you'll see in our navigation:
- Celebrities:This is our look at the people shaping public life. We go beyond gossip to provide "How rich are they?" net worth estimates, in-depth bios, and quick, factual breakdowns of their careers.
- Travel: This is our local love letter. Our travel guides are a "local's look" at Connecticut, focusing on the hidden gems, easy itineraries, and practical tips you need to see the realNutmeg State.
- Features:This is our home for diverse, in-depth stories and analysis. From breakdowns of business and wealth to explainers on new trends, this is where we "go deep" on compelling topics that don't fit the daily news cycle.
These pillars are just the beginning. We are constantly exploring new topics, and as our independent coverage grows, you can expect to see new, insightful categories added to this list.
At the Connecticut Independent, "independent" isn't just in our name—it's our approach. It means clear standards, transparent methods, and useful work—no clickbait, no hype.
We are committed to providing stories that are clear and trustworthy. To do this, we adhere to strict editorial standards:
- Sourcing:We cite original or authoritative sources. If a figure is uncertain, we say so (e.g., “estimate” or range).
- Accuracy:We aim for plain-English clarity before speed.
- Updates: When facts change, we revise articles and mark major updates.
Net-worth pieces use publicly available information: interviews, filings, trades, tour data, box office, and credible reporting. We present estimates/ranges, never hard claims without evidence.
