About

Capturing the world without bias or fear Our founders quit their jobs in August 2020 because they couldn’t bear consuming divisive, biased, and fear-mongering news any longer. News media had been deteriorating for years; the pandemic accelerated the trend. Our founders envisioned a media company that helped people live happier, healthier, and more informed lives. They set out to create convenient news products that did that. “Roca” is short for “Pororoca,” a biannual wave that sweeps the Amazon River. Surfers come from across the world to surf the Pororoca; it’s a wave that brings people together. That’s Roca’s mission with the news. For business: [email protected] Fan emails: [email protected]

Video Description

We went to the heart of Silicon Valley in Atherton, California to experience the lavish lifestyle of the richest zip code in America. While touring the quaint mansions, we found controversies on zoning, demographics, and politics. About Roca: RocaNews is an independent media company started by 3 friends in 2020.
