The Bureau for International Reporting is a non-profit 501(c)(3) video news organization dedicated to offering coverage of overlooked international news stories to American news providers - and hence the underserved American public. The BIR strives to examine issues and places that often remain neglected because of the constraints on the modern US news market. Our model is to use new technology and streamlined production to efficiently yet thoroughly cover stories that otherwise would remain untold. Our directors have a combined 30 years experience in network television news and have worked for ABC, CBS, CNN, PBS, Discovery, CBC and the New York Times. They have reported from over 25 countries worldwide.
