Friend,
If our democracy and the future of our media feel more uncertain to you than ever, you’re not alone.
What still gives me hope is that Free Press knows what it takes to fight for your rights to connect and communicate. Since our founding in 2003, we've been holding powerful media and tech companies accountable. Now more than ever, we need your support to continue this essential work.
And I’m thrilled to share that a generous donor has offered to TRIPLE MATCH any gift made toward our $10,000 #GivingTuesday goal through midnight tonight. There’s never been a better time to make your first donation to Free Press: Will you make a generous gift to take advantage of this special #GivingTuesday triple match? Every dollar you give today will go 3x as far.
So, what’s on our agenda for the rest of 2024, 2025 and beyond? Our team of attorneys, campaigners and policy experts is ready to:
- Derail Trump's agenda to deregulate the media and tech industry.
- Protect journalists and the truth against his attacks.
- Expose the media and tech billionaires who powered his return.
- Oppose dangerous appointments to key federal agencies like the FCC and FTC.
- Take our fights to the states if the federal government won't help people or carry out its responsibilities.
Some of this work is already underway: We’ve been leading the opposition to Trump’s choice of Brendan Carr to chair the FCC. We're exposing how the commissioner has gone after media outlets that Trump doesn't like — and showing how Carr is promising to give away billions to Elon Musk, end Net Neutrality and deep-six the agency’s diversity efforts. And we’re pushing the Senate to reject legislation that would give Trump the power to punish any nonprofit organization he doesn't like.
But we can’t do this alone. Your generous support keeps us independent from the government, political parties and the industries we track — and allows us to work solely on behalf of the public interest. If you’re with us, triple your very first gift to Free Press by midnight.
With gratitude,
Candace and the rest of the Free Press team
