Creator news, with the receipts
An independent, US-focused publication covering YouTubers, streamers, TikTok creators and the platforms they use. Every story opens with “The tea”, three bullets that explain it in ten seconds, says whether it is confirmed, developing, unconfirmed or an allegation, and links to its sources.

Creator news lives somewhere between clips with no context and rumors passed off as facts. NewsThat.Rocks wanted to be quick to read and, at the same time, checkable: every story should say what is confirmed and where it comes from.
We built a WordPress site on a custom theme designed around that format: the three-bullet summary up top, the “tea level” and the status of every story, creator pages that collect everything published about each one, sections by platform and topic, and a public corrections page.
What we built for NewsThat.Rocks
Every article opens with “The tea”: the whole story in three bullets
Creator pages (MrBeast, JerryRigEverything…) that collect all of their coverage
A status on every story (confirmed, developing, allegation or unconfirmed) and a public corrections page
The NewsThat.Rocks project in numbers
bullets of “The tea” at the top of every story
sections: YouTube, TikTok, streamers, platforms, money, drama, love and viral
tea levels, from mild to nuclear
What happened to NewsThat.Rocks after launch
The format is the product: “The tea” handles the quick read and the linked sources handle trust, which is exactly what the genre is missing. And because it runs on WordPress, the newsroom publishes several stories a day without needing us.
The tech behind NewsThat.Rocks
