John,
In a moment, we'll explain why tonight is no ordinary fundraising deadline, but before we do, we're humbly asking for a contribution of any amount before midnight tonight. It's our first end-of-month fundraising deadline of 2024, and we urgently need to start this year on the right foot.
2024 is no ordinary election year – just think about everything that’s happened already in the first month:
After big wins in Iowa and New Hampshire, Donald Trump (a former President facing 91 criminal charges) has all but locked up the nomination. Incredibly, the entirety of the Republican Party, Fox News, and the rest of the right-wing propaganda machine are rallying behind him.
After having almost a decade to figure it out, mainstream media outlets are still struggling with how to cover Trump without helping him spread hate and misinformation.
The reality is that Donald Trump is a fascist demagogue who has openly broadcasted his desire to initiate a “retribution tour” should he retake the White House.
There’s no “both sides” way to cover that – only the truth.
At COURIER, our ten battleground state newsrooms aren’t afraid to tell that truth in the communities that need to hear it most. Unlike mainstream media, we put our belief in rigorous, fact-based journalism first. We don’t spread hate, and we don’t chase profits.
Simply put, John: COURIER was born for this moment.
We’re ready to take on frauds like Donald Trump, but to do that, COURIER needs resources to keep our newsrooms running and our content freely available in the online spaces where right-wing misinformation spreads.
So what do you say? Can we count on you to pitch in what you can so we can hit our first end-of-month fundraising deadline of the year?
