The Defiant publishes news stories and features, research reports, opinion columns, exclusive interviews and tutorials across its website, newsletters, podcast and YouTube channel.

Hundreds of thousands consume The Defiant content each month, and after its 10x growth in 2021, we expect that to climb into the millions this year.
