Friend,

Since the coronavirus hit, more than 50 newsrooms in America have been
forced to shut down, in what is being called a "media extinction event."
And that's following a decade in which half of all newsroom jobs at U.S.
newspapers have been eliminated.

No wonder Donald Trump gets away with so many lies.

Common Dreams is one of the only news sources in the country that has
avoided these kinds of mass layoffs, but that's only because of
donations from our readers. As a nonprofit newsroom, if we aren't able
to meet our fundraising targets, then we surely will suffer the same
fate.

That's why I'm so concerned right now: Because with just three days to
go, we're still $28,000 behind our goal for our pre-election Summer
Campaign.

The death spiral in journalism is happening at the very moment when our
democracy is most in danger.

Please donate to help reach our Summer Campaign goal by Monday night and
us avoid the devastating layoffs that have affected so many other news
sources. All donations will be matched by a generous donor.
