MPMONITOR is a research project of the Media and Journalism Research Center (MJRC), an independent research organisation working since 2015. The register is kept by researchers; organisations do not pay to be in it and cannot pay to change it. About Source Passports

Passports are free to read, and claiming one is free. Payment can buy data access or research time, but never changes what a passport says.
