In turbulent times, when journalism is attacked both by the government and by fake news, standing firm in the battle for true news and opening the way to uncover the truth is an obligation to both today and tomorrow.
The necessity for a new path has never been more urgent, especially today when quality journalism remains a barren field consciously undermined by a political class that has continually violated media freedom. Equally concerning is the ongoing threat posed by media owned by proprietors who mix business with journalism. In this Machiavellian environment, where even the government has become a “journalist,” Shteg.org hopes to be a thread of hope and integrity in the pursuit of truth in Albanian journalism.
Our mission is not to turn SHTEG into an online outlet for quick news. It is an uncompromising commitment to principles, values, and sincere dedication to facts and truth, thereby reviving investigative journalism that goes beyond superficial reporting, propaganda, and sometimes deliberate disinformation.
We commit to uphold the standards of investigative journalism by offering our readers information based on facts, evidence, solid arguments, and above all, honesty through a battle to open a path toward the truth.
However, we do not want to end our fight here for honest and quality journalism for the public. Therefore, we aim to further expand by diversifying our content to include, beyond investigative articles, opinions and other forms of communication to provide a new, real, and as complete as possible perspective on the events taking place. Demonstrating at every step our sincere commitment to you.
We hope that in these turbulent times for the journalist’s mission, SHTEG will truly live up to its name by not only leaving behind the footsteps of those who created it but also a path toward the values of information, standing out as a media outlet that insists on transparency, holds governments accountable, and offers the public impartial and quality investigation, news, and opinion.
As we begin this journey, we invite you as readers to join us in building together the foundations of journalism that we want to leave as a good mark of the media house in our country. Together, we can build a better place where the media serves democracy by strengthening society through news and truth.
SHTEG is more than just a name; it is a commitment to pursue the truth and an advocacy for professional and dignified journalism.
Let us walk together on this Path to fight for a better Albania.
