About The Philadelphia Inquirer, PBC

Since 1829, The Philadelphia Inquirer has been "asking on behalf of the people" by providing essential journalism for the diverse communities of the Philadelphia region. The Inquirer, a for-profit public benefit corporation owned by the non-profit Lenfest Institute, produces Pulitzer Prize-winning journalism that changes lives and leads to lasting reforms. Its multiple brand platforms - including newspapers, Inquirer.com, e-Editions, apps, newsletters, and live events - reach a growing audience of more than 10 million people a month. "In a free state, there should always be an inquirer asking on behalf of the people: Why? Why? Why?" - John Norvell, Inquirer co-founder
