ThinkProgress was an American progressive news website that was active from 2005 to 2019. It was a project of the Center for American Progress Action Fund (CAP Action), a progressive public policy research and advocacy organization. Founded by Judd Legum in 2005, the site's reports were regularly discussed by mainstream news outlets and peer-reviewed academic journals. ThinkProgress also hosted a climate section called Climate Progress, which was founded by Joe Romm.
In 2019, after financial losses, CAP Action unsuccessfully sought a new publisher for the site.[1] No new content has been added since September 2019, rendering ThinkProgress effectively defunct.
