Tips: To suggest a story or otherwise share information with our newsroom, please fill out this brief form. Although there are additional ways to contact us, submitting tips through the form helps us organize the many tips that flow to our newsroom and respond to those who share them. We do our best to let tipsters know how — or whether — we plan to follow up.

Email:

To contact a specific reporter, editor or other member of our organization, look for their name and contact info here on our staff page.

If you contact us via email, you will receive a response confirming that we have received your message. We review voicemails and mail as they come in, but we cannot promise that each will receive an individual response. If we can’t meet your needs, we will attempt to point you in the direction of appropriate resources.

More about story tips

We will keep all tips we receive confidential, and will ask your permission to pass the tip along to another news organization if we think it would be better directed or covered elsewhere.

If you’d like to secure the contents of your email message, you can use the Chrome extension Mailvelope. Mailvelope only encrypts the content of your email; it does not encrypt metadata, such as sender, recipient, time or subject. The contents of the message will be encrypted, but whom you communicate with will typically be stored. This metadata will be available to your email provider.

The best way to submit a truly confidential tip is through the mail, using an unmarked envelope and mailing from a public mailbox.
