Dear Friend of Press Freedom,

Journalists are truth seekers, and it's crucial to stand by them as they courageously pursue facts in these turbulent times.

Will you make a “tribute” donation to Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF) in honor of the journalist(s) who makes a difference in your life? ([link removed])

Several alarming statements were made two weeks ago by key political figures. Longtime Donald Trump ally Steve Bannon, on his podcast ([link removed]) , hinted at prosecuting “deep staters,” while another Trump ally, Kash Patel, spoke of targeting media members who lied and “helped Joe Biden rig presidential elections.” Meanwhile, Sen. J.D. Vance called for an investigation ([link removed]) of a journalist who wrote that ([link removed]) “a Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable.”
FIGHT ANTI-PRESS SENTIMENTS ([link removed])

These sentiments underscore the growing risks journalists face in their pursuit of truth and accountability. According to Axios ([link removed]) , these attitudes come from the most likely cabinet appointments in the event of a Trump reelection.

At FPF, we defend journalists against these threats and more through cutting-edge technology, training, and advocacy ([link removed]) . Your donation will fortify our efforts to protect their rights and ensure they can continue to uncover truths amidst adversity.
