Dear Reader,
Blaze Media is news, opinion, and entertainment for people who love the American way of life.
We love our country. And this is why we are disheartened by what we see happening to it.
Each day we see more norms recklessly being broken, from the effort to imprison Donald Trump to the persecution of parents and pro-life protesters. The weaponization of government, corporations, and our major institutions against anyone who disagrees is — and is intended to be — frightening and dispiriting.
But we’re not giving up. While many may no longer care about our founding principles and the wisdom of our past heroes, we do. We do not want a government run by the collusion of the woke and the powerful with the unelected administrative state. We want to revive and restore the republican form of government in America.
So what can we actually do?
Starting today, Blaze Media is going to expand in five big areas in the coming months to help you answer that question for yourself and your family.
But we simply cannot do it without you. Big tech companies demonetize us to the extent that we are dependent on advertising with them. As we move toward the election in November 2024, things are going to get worse.
Today, we are ripping off the Band-Aid: We are abandoning big tech’s advertising networks and moving to subscription-based news, opinion, and entertainment.
We are not just asking you to help us get out from under big tech; we are also boldly expanding the content that matters to you.
Throughout it all, Blaze Media will continue to serve as the independent voice it has been since Glenn Beck and Mark Levin cofounded this company in 2018. Haters scoffed at the effort. No one’s laughing now.
As mainstream networks have devolved into government-approved propaganda mills, Blaze Media has risen as a vital source and voice for millions. We are so very thankful for your support, and I am very grateful to have the opportunity to work hard to bring you more of what you want and deserve.
Together, we will forge an American way of life in the 21st century worthy of the name for ourselves and our children. And we can start doing that by simply coming together to find ways to practically better our lives and communities in whatever situation we find ourselves.
America is not over. This is our country. We will never give up seeking a better way of life for ourselves and our children. The frontier, where our hearts and minds are truly tested, is always within us. It’s the place where we build ourselves up — together.
Above all, do not lose hope. The true, the good, and the beautiful will always win in the end. Forget all the noise out there. In the silence of our hearts, we each need to keep asking ourselves: What can we do?
The answer is: a lot.
Join us. If you haven’t done so already, subscribe now.
All of us at Blaze Media look forward to bringing you more of the information and insight you need to live well — and we humbly thank you for your support in the days ahead.
With gratitude,
Matthew J. Peterson
