The site's blog is largely run by Founder and CEO, [[Kieren McCarthy]]. It quickly became a vocal ICANN commentator, and has been known for breaking stories and critically analyzing ICANN's inner workings. It also comments on other policy groups and Internet governance developments. Important stories include leaking six non-papers from the [[European Commission]] in August of 2011 that largely describe the Union's desire to see ICANN submit to government demands,<ref>[http://news.dot-nxt.com/2011/08/31/ec-greater-government-control EC Greater Government Control, dot-nxt.com]</ref> and pressing ICANN to reveal the steps leading up to CEO [[Rod Beckstrom]]'s resignation.<ref>[http://news.dot-nxt.com/2011/09/19/board-meeting-didp-two How Long Can ICANN Hide its Secret Meeting?, dot-nxt.com]</ref> Information regarding the latter is likely sought to validate Mr. McCarthy's hypothesis that Rod Beckstrom was not asked to extend his contract, or effectively fired.<ref>[http://news.dot-nxt.com/2011/08/16/icann-fires-ceo ICANN fires CEO, dot-nxt.com]</ref>
