Nonprofit investigative outlet ProPublica . . .

. . .  probes important issues from the pharmaceutical industry to hate crimes.  ProPublica won its 3rd Pulitzer last year for a fascinating feature, "An Unbelievable Story of Rape."  Another Propublica piece by Justin Elliott during the height of the Edward Snowden controversy questioned the evidence-free claim that NSA mass surveillance of all of us has thwarted 54 terror plots.
