Kloop is a media organization based in Kyrgyzstan known for its news website and journalism investigations. Founded in 2007, Kloop gained prominence in Kyrgyzstan three years later, when it investigated criminal activities of the son of the president of Kyrgyzstan. Today Kloop is one of the most popular news websites in Kyrgyzstan. Kloop was founded in 2007 by journalists Bektour Iskender and Rinat Tuhvatshin. From the beginning, Kloop worked with young journalists, who were trained at its own journalism school. In February 2010 Kloop's reporters investigated how Maxim Bakiyev, son of then Kyrgyz president Kurmanbek Bakiyev, gained illegal control over Kyrgyztelecom, the country's largest communications provider. After receiving threats for attempts to continue the investigation, Kloop gained more attention two months later for its coverage of the revolution, during which Bakiyev and his family were ousted and forced to live in exile.
