Mediapart (French: [medjapaʁt]) is an independent nonprofit French investigative online newspaper created in 2008 by Edwy Plenel, former editor-in-chief of Le Monde. It is published in French, English, and Spanish. The newspaper is owned by Le Fonds pour une Presse Libre, a non-profit trust created to support freedom of the press. It has produced hundreds of investigations over the past 15 years, on political corruption, financial fraud, environmental crimes, as well as on sexual harassment and police violence. The New York Times has called Mediapart "France's leading investigative news site". By early 2025, Mediapart reached more than 245,000 paid subscribers.
