Welcome to Unplugged!
🧠 Welcome to Unplugged with Aaron Knapp
Broadcasting Without Permission
This is the new home for everything Unplugged — my reporting, my podcast, my investigations, and the stories that others won’t tell.
Here, I’ll publish what I’ve uncovered about the systems of power shaping Lorain, Ohio, and beyond.
No filters. No spin. No permission needed.
🎙 What Unplugged Stands For
Unplugged was built on one simple truth:
If you depend on permission to tell the truth, you’ll never tell it.
This platform is for raw journalism, community accountability, and real conversation — not soundbites.
You’ll find evidence, documents, transcripts, and the stories behind them.
I don’t report to the gatekeepers. I report to the people.
🔍 What You’ll Find Here
- Investigations — From City Hall to the courthouse, following the paper trail where others stop.
- Podcasts — Candid, long-form discussions recorded live and unfiltered.
- Editorials & Essays — Commentary on local and statewide issues that connect Lorain to the larger story of Ohio politics.
- Community Voices — Guest perspectives and citizen reporting that deserve a platform.
🚀 Why This Matters
This site isn’t just a news outlet — it’s a statement of independence.
Public records, government accountability, and free speech are the foundations of a free society.
When officials weaponize information or hide the truth, it’s up to journalists and citizens to take it back.
Unplugged is the response to that — a reminder that the microphone belongs to the people.

Each post, each recording, and each investigation builds toward something bigger:
A network of truth-tellers who refuse silence.
If you’ve ever said, “Somebody should expose that,”
welcome — you’re in the right place.
