Dear Poynter friend,
Journalism is one of the most powerful tools we have to protect democracy. It fosters understanding, keeps us informed and holds the powerful to account. But none of this happens without the support of people like you — people who believe in the enduring value of truth and transparency.
I’m writing to invite you to join our new membership program: Poynter’s First Amendment Society. It’s a community of individuals who wish to advance journalism and strengthen our communities. This program recognizes all levels of support to Poynter’s branches, including PolitiFact, the International Fact-Checking Network, and MediaWise.
By becoming a member, you’re directly helping Poynter:
