John —
In 2020, Georgia proved itself to be a key battleground state. In 2024, we expect it to be just as competitive — which is why we’re asking you today: ⬇️

Should COURIER open a newsroom in Georgia? |
This week, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis handed down Donald Trump’s fourth indictment for his alleged actions in attempting to overturn the 2020 election.
Immediately after the charges were announced, we saw Fox News and the right-wing media ecosphere push a steady stream of misinformation designed to undermine the case against the former president.
That’s where we come in. We know that the best way to combat this dangerous misinformation is with trustworthy, fact-based, and accessible reporting that directly counters the false narratives and outright lies that Fox and other right-wing media outlets are peddling.
The stakes are high, John. In 2020, President Biden won the state by only 11,780 votes while Senators Jon Ossoff and Rev. Raphael Warnock won their races by just 1.2 and 2 percent respectively.
Our network of newsrooms in nine key battleground states are committed to neutralizing misinformation in the spaces where it typically thrives by delivering quality, fact-based journalism to the communities that need it the most.
But opening a newsroom isn’t easy. It takes time and resources to hire journalists and build a network of readers. And that’s why we’re asking you: Should we bring COURIER'S honest, fact-based journalism to the Peach State?
Thank you for taking action,
The COURIER team
