Headlines and the words behind them tell a story of their own.
John,
The New York Times is so ubiquitous in our media landscape, that it’s often called the “newspaper of record.”
Despite this, the Times' headlines often miss the mark and fail to tell the whole story.
So, what happens when news organizations like The New York Times fall short in their headlines? Take a look for yourself: ⬇️
The result: The Times and other news organizations often write headlines that sand down the sharp edges of the GOP’s extremism and fail to provide the essential context needed to understand a story.
Unlike the Times and other mainstream outlets, at Courier, we’re committed to writing headlines and stories that not only tell the full story but won’t whitewash the GOP’s extremism. Take a look at the difference, John.
If you're ready to support honest, good journalism that won't water down the truth, can you chip in $5 today?
The Times' timid approach to its headlines spreads far beyond its readership because many other news organizations follow its lead and mimic this misguided approach. It’s this same method that provides an opening to right-wing bad actors and others by allowing them to propagate and spread misinformation.
Our growing network of nine newsrooms nationwide offers an alternative to the mainstream media’s overly sensationalized headlines and profit-driven intent. And we will never compromise our values to make a quick buck. As a result, we rely on grassroots supporters like you to power the reporting that comes from our newsrooms. If you're able to, can you pitch in anything you can today to support our values-driven reporting?
