With 11 million visitors a month, AL.com is Alabama’s largest news site and one of the largest local sites in the country.

Our journalists cover breaking news as it happens. Dig into the state’s most pressing issues through award-winning investigative reporting and smart commentary. Deliver up close analysis on college football, basketball and more. And bring the state together with stories that highlight what we all love about Alabama

AL.com also has one of the largest investigative reporting teams in the South. And we recently announced the launch of a local investigative reporting network in Alabama to focus on holding officials accountable to residents and investigating corruption in Birmingham, Huntsville and Mobile.

The impact of our recent work has been significant. In the last five years:

• Our work has freed people from jail – more than once. We’ve explored troubling criminal cases and examined police shootings

• Our findings led to lawsuits and resignations, caused state officials to launch multiple investigations and prompted the DOJ to get involved.

• Our reporting drew action from the governor’s office and spurred change to the unemployment system. And forced leaders to confront their pasts or explain their own policies.

• Legislators have funded solutions identified in our work. Courts have forced police videos to be made public. Polluters have shut down and been fined.

AL.com journalists won Pulitzer Prizes in 2018 and 2021 , and were named a Pulitzer Prize finalist in 2021. In the last five years, the team has won a national Edward R. Murrow Award for podcasting and 21 regional Emmys for documentary work. And have been finalists for the national Goldsmith Prize and winners in other national and regional journalism contests.
