John, take a look
at this headline:

Fox is broadcasting tonight’s GOP debate, but the exclusive online
livestream will take place on Rumble — an “alternative” video-sharing
platform that has long been a hub for far-right extremism, white
supremacy, election disinformation, and conspiracy theories.

[ [link removed] ]In a moment, we’ll explain more about Rumble, but before we do, can you
chip in anything you can so we fight back against the right-wing
disinformation that will inevitably come out of tonight’s debate?

So, what exactly is Rumble?

Rumble is a video-sharing platform that positions itself as a conservative
alternative to YouTube.

Rumble prides itself on being “immune to cancel culture.” Users upload
tons of videos that violate the content standards of mainstream social
media platforms, including content that denies the 2020 election results
and promotes bigoted views on race and gender.

A 2022 analysis from News Guard — an organization that monitors online
misinformation — found that nearly half of the videos suggested by Rumble
in response to searches for common election-related keywords came from
uncredible sources.

In livestreaming tonight’s debate on Rumble, the RNC is knowingly driving
voters to a platform where hate and propaganda spread. As we saw in 2016
and in the aftermath of the 2020 election, bad information can spread
beyond social media platforms like Rumble and into communities that don’t
have access to news sources they can trust.

At Courier Newsroom, our innovative model is keenly focused on combating
this problem. We report the truth, no matter what, and we bring that truth
to vulnerable communities without paywalls or subscription fees.

But if we’re going to continue to be on the frontlines of fighting back
against disinformation mills like Rumble, we’ll need your
help, John.
