Fika for Independent Journalists
A place to publish your reporting, build your own audience and earn from your work, without waiting for a newsroom to say yes.
Your reporting deserves more space than a column
Many journalists have stories to tell but limited places to publish them.
Shrinking newsrooms, rigid editorial lines and endless pitches make it harder to get your work out.
- Publish freely without editorial barriers
- Turn your reporting into your own publication
- Build an audience who follows you, not the newspaper
- Create a sustainable path to earn from your work
Independence is the new newsroom
Journalism is shifting. Today’s strongest voices publish on their own terms, building trust directly with their readers.
Fika gives journalists the tools to publish, grow and sustain meaningful reporting without gatekeepers.
