John, First, during the 2016 campaign and throughout the Trump presidency, the media obsessively covered Trump's divisive and often dangerous behavior because it brought a surge in viewers and online clicks.
Then, Trump lost in 2020. Fox News and the right-wing media responded by pushing the Big Lie that directly led to the violence we saw at the Capitol on January 6th.
Now, Trump, the front-runner again, is facing 91 felony charges in four separate cases, making an urgent and unprecedented moment. It’s no exaggeration to say that the media’s response to this will have a dramatic impact on the future of our democracy.
2024 is the news media’s biggest test in the history of our democracy. The bad news is that there’s already evidence that they’re failing. The good news is that Courier’s talented teams of journalists are already working around the clock to pick up their slack.
We can stop Donald Trump’s lies and conspiracy theories from spreading, but we need your help. Can you chip in anything that makes sense to you ahead of our $7,500 mid-month fundraising deadline at midnight TONIGHT? [[link removed]]
Donald Trump has made it very clear. If re-elected, he’s promised that his top priority will be revenge and retribution against his perceived enemies.
That’s not a political platform, that’s literal fascism.
We’re not afraid to say that, but will the mainstream media? Recent history says the chances aren’t good. That’s why we need your support right now. We have to provide the truth to the communities that need it most if the mainstream media fails to meet the moment and protect our democracy.
With hours to go until our mid-month fundraising deadline at midnight, we’re hoping you can donate anything you can to help us reach our $7,500 fundraising goal. [[link removed]]
