How to send investigative tips to The Bellingham Herald. We need your help on coronavirus

Dear readers,

The Bellingham Herald believes in journalism that illuminates critical problems facing the public – the waste of public resources, government and corporate fraud, abuse of power, corruption, and injustice in all its forms. We have a commitment to telling stories that make a difference. We conduct journalism without fear or favor.

In this time of crisis, we want to hear from you, especially if you’re a health care worker, government employee, nursing home resident or hospital patient. You can reach us in a variety of ways, including anonymously.

You can email us directly at newsroom@bellinghamherald.com or use the online tip form if you wish to protect your identity. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to communicate with reporters and editors as safely and securely as possible.

Please help us tell these important stories and make our communities safer.

Sincerely,

Julie Shirley

Executive Editor and General Manager
