About the publication

Independent commentary with a clear point of view.

The American Take is an independent American news, culture and commentary publication. We cover current events, family, community and the cultural forces shaping everyday life.

Our goal is to make the distinction between fact, analysis and opinion clear. We want readers to know what happened, what evidence supports it, what we think it means, and where interpretation begins.

Independence

The American Take is not affiliated with, authorized by, or operated on behalf of any political candidate or campaign. Advertising and sponsorship relationships do not grant advertisers control over editorial conclusions.

How we work

Published work should be original, useful to the reader and supported by appropriate sourcing. When we materially get something wrong, we should correct the record rather than quietly hide the change.
