Barcroft TV is a British news agency. Sam Barcroft is the founder of the company.[1] Barcroft Media founded itself as an alternative media news agency for weird and unusual news stories.[2][3][4] British broadcaster Channel 4 had a controlling stake in Barcroft Media until November 2019 when it was sold to Total Film/SFX publisher Future plc.[5][6][7][8][9] In 2020, Barcroft TV changed their channel name on YouTube to "truly", with a television channel of the same name due to be launched on the European version of Pluto TV in July 2020.[10] Barcroft also expanded their truly brand to other online web online platforms, including Rumble.[11]
