John,

We are in an information crisis. 185 million Americans don’t trust the news, because people simply don’t know which sources to rely on for factual information anymore.

From the far-right propaganda and dangerous rhetoric coming out of Fox News to the profit-driven behavior of mainstream news networks, our communities are in desperate need of truthful journalism they can trust.

Now more than ever, America needs Courier.

As the nation's largest left-leaning local news network, we run newsrooms in nine key battleground states where disinformation is spreading the fastest, providing meaningful, factual content to those most susceptible to misleading or false information.

We need to keep our newsrooms alive while expanding across the country to reach even more Americans in “news deserts” ahead of the 2024 elections. And to do that, we can’t afford to miss any of our fundraising goals.

With our October fundraising deadline less than two weeks away, can you make a grassroots contribution of $15 or more today to help us reach our goal and keep providing free, fact-based journalism to those who need it most?

When you donate to Courier, you are genuinely giving us the resources to keep the lights on and deliver news to the people without using paywalls or subscription fees.

Thanks for all you do,

The Courier Newsroom Team
