John — since Trump’s indictment was announced, the information crisis has taken on a life of its own.
On one hand, you have Trump’s right-wing cronies pushing his lies to tons of people. On the other, you have the mainstream media covering Trump’s every move, drowning out or completely ignoring essential local news stories.
In the end, we’re left with a huge information gap that our local newsrooms across eight battleground states are working tirelessly to fill.
To do that, we make our news stories freely available to anyone who needs them. But, in order to keep it that way, we have to fundraise to support the work of our journalists.
In that spirit, we’re excited to announce our Sponsor a Newsroom Project.
You’ve been selected to sponsor the local Courier newsroom in your home state! We’ve set a goal to raise $12,500 and reach readers across Pennsylvania. Can your local Courier newsroom count on you to chip in $5 now and help them spread their stories to every corner of the state? ⇢ Yes, I’ll sponsor my local Courier newsroom with a contribution of $5 now.

Our Sponsor a Newsroom Project will be game-changing for our newsrooms and the communities they serve — especially as the presidential election takes off. Our news teams in states like Wisconsin and Virginia have already shown what a powerful role trustworthy local journalism can have in their recent state elections.
The stakes will be even higher in November 2024.
This plan only works though if we can raise enough money to help outfit our newsrooms with the staff, technology, and resources they need.
Will you chip in $5 so we can hit our $12,500 fundraising goal today?
Thank you,
The Courier Newsroom Team
