What makes Common Dreams

"the best damn news organization on the planet?"

The answer is simple: Readers and supporters like you. What makes us
different-and keeps us strong-is that we are funded by good people
like you and not the billionaires or corporations that control most of
the media.

Please help us keep it that way.
