West Virginia Report

West Virginia Report is a statewide digital news publication built around a simple idea: West Virginia is more than any single city, industry, or headline. Our newsroom covers the people, places, and decisions connecting Charleston and Morgantown to Bluefield and the Eastern Panhandle, treating every region of the state as newsworthy.

We report on politics, business, communities, the environment, travel, beauty and wellness, sports, arts and culture, and opinion with the same editorial standard, whether the story originates in a statehouse committee room or a county courthouse.

Our Coverage Area

West Virginia Report reports across Charleston, Morgantown, Huntington, Wheeling, Parkersburg, Beckley, Martinsburg, and every region in between — Northern West Virginia, Central West Virginia, Southern West Virginia, the Eastern Panhandle, the Ohio Valley, the Kanawha Valley, the New River Region, and rural West Virginia. Statewide journalism, to us, means covering the whole map, not just the capital.

Editorial Independence

West Virginia Report is editorially independent. Our reporting and opinion sections are clearly separated, and our journalists are expected to disclose conflicts of interest and correct errors transparently. Read our full Editorial Standards for more detail.
