FAQ:
What is UrbanTrueCrime?
UrbanTrueCrime.com is a cutting edge and objective source for “urban journalism”, giving you a direct insight to the inner workings of American hoods, their ganglands, and their increasingly popular drill culture. Fans of A&E ‘s “The First 48”, this is the publication for you
What does the site post about?
UrbanTrueCrime.com launched originally as Weapons Grade Viral Media (2019 as WeaponsG.com), with intentions to cover primarily drill related content. We were a source for hip-hop news, new rap music, viral videos and images, and breaking current events + pop culture. In 2021, we underwent a brand change so as to hugely improve our domain name and searchability. With the new “true crime” undertone, the horizons are now broadened when it comes to the scope of content we feature.
Where do you source your content?
Aside from resident research and analysis, the Submit page is the channel in place for readers to send in stories, requests, information, comments, questions or anything of that nature.
Does UrbanTrueCrime.com have a code of ethics?
The subject matters dealt with on this publication are those of poverty, despair, violence, and racial divisiveness. We are “competitors” to sites that share a lot of graphic content (fights, knock-outs on the street, videos of muggings and shootings etc.) and while that content is easy to host and nets clicks, UrbanTrueCrime.com is trying hard not to represent that negativity in the culture as we portray it. We are an objective outlet for urban true crime stories- a haven for fair journalism, and a publication with an overall goal of challenging societal norms within urban America.
Where is UrbanTrueCrime.com based?
UrbanTrueCrime.com, part of Weapons Grade Media Group, is based out of Saskatchewan, Canada.
