Why LexisNexis Beats the Web

Free online search engines miss or don’t have access to many of the best, most reliable sources — vital material for generating story ideas and completing assignments.

  • LexisNexis is the industry standard for accurate, reliable research information and it is used by every top media outlet across the globe.
  • You get access to blocked, costly or hard-to-find content, including top magazines, international journals, broadcast transcripts, industry publications, local newspapers, government documents, academic studies and social media.
  • LexisNexis is curated and vetted, protecting you from questionable, dated or spoofed material.

How this deal came about

Hi. I’m Brad Hamilton, former investigations editor at the New York Post and lifelong freelancer. In my job as head of the Contently Foundation, I found that contributors couldn’t get LexisNexis – it was too expensive and not set up for their needs. Would the company be open to a discount just for them? Yes! They agreed to drop their price to $26 per month (paid annually) – the lowest ever. I agreed to help journalists learn how to make the most of this amazing service, the industry standard for research. But it’s a limited-time offer.

We need enough sign-ups to continue the deal. So act now. Get a subscription. Tell a friend. Here’s how:
