John, we’ve got to talk about what’s going on in Congress.
Mainstream media outlets have been buzzing with stories about the House GOP passing a major debt ceiling bill. For the most part, they’ve kept their coverage limited to sweeping statements about massive spending cuts — with some even calling it a ‘win for McCarthy’... seriously.1
What they fail to mention is exactly how this bill would impact millions of Americans — slashing spending on everything from food to healthcare for veterans. Luckily, that’s where we come in.
Unlike the mainstream media, our reporters are getting right to the point with their coverage. They’re publishing articles like these that focused on the hard-hitting facts and figures of this bill — specifically looking at how these proposed spending cuts would play out in their state.
They’re also taking to social media to post eye-catching infographics that will reach readers (and voters) across their states. Actions like this are essential to holding the elected officials who voted to pass this outrageous bill accountable.
This is just a glimpse at some of the incredible work our dedicated local news reporters are doing everyday to fill in the gaps left by the mainstream media and restore Americans’ trust in the news. But for them to keep going, we need your help.
Thanks for your support,
The Courier Newsroom Team
