The mission of Investigative Post is to produce independent, fact-based investigative stories and analyses on issues that matter to the citizens and taxpayers of Buffalo and Western New York.
Investigative Post is the only news organization in Western New York dedicated exclusively to watchdog journalism.
We’re best known for exposing corruption in the Buffalo Billion program. Our reporting over the years has also been lauded for exposing lead poisoning, the fouling of our waterways, misconduct by Buffalo police and wasteful corporate subsidies.
