Mother Jones and The Center for Investigative Reporting announced plans on Thursday to merge as one nonprofit news outlet, to take effect early next year.
Both organizations were founded around the same time — Mother Jones in 1976 and Cir a year later — and they have, through the years, produced joint reporting projects. Both are based in San Francisco, and Mother Jones has offices in New York and Washington, D.C.
The two organizations will combine their newsrooms, and production will continue on the Mother Jones magazine and website and the Reveal radio show and podcast. The organization also will continue to create video and documentary film productions.
Monika Bauerlein will serve as CEO of the organization, and Robert J. Rosenthal, who has been CEO of Cir, will serve as CEO emeritus. Clara Jeffery editor in chief of Mother Jones, will lead the combined newsroom, and Al Letson will continue as host of Reveal.

Berkeley, CA And Miami – August 14, 2012 – The Center for Investigative Reporting (Cir) and Univision News announce a partnership to jointly produce investigative stories relevant to Spanish-speaking audiences in the United States and Latin America. Cir, the oldest and largest non-profit investigative unit in the nation and Univision, the leading media company serving Hispanic America, are strategically looking to broaden their reach so that larger audiences have access to their high-quality investigations. Univision, which reaches 96 percent of U.S. Hispanic households, leads the media industry in reaching Hispanics, the youngest and fastest-growing demographic. Together, the organizations will work closely to produce investigations that not only inform Hispanics on important civic issues, but that will also further engage and empower them to act and bring positive change to their communities. “The partnership with Univision ties in with our strategy of reaching an ever growing and diverse audience,” said Robert J. Rosenthal, executive director of Cir.
