The Red Folder was founded as a current events news brief aimed at giving extempers and debaters a free, easily accessible way to read more. Now, we offer weekly briefs of four international and four domestic stories, breaking news updates released throughout the week, and rare, high-quality special reports. We have a team of 30+ staff writers that work tirelessly to bring readers condensed current events information and top-notch analysis. Our staff writers include several national champions and major national circuit finalists in extemp speaking and debate.Â
