Friend,
What’s your dream for the future of media? At Free Press Action, we envision a world where a community of love will silence Sinclair, Infowars, Breitbart and all the other megaphones of hate.
This week, the demise of Sinclair’s mega-merger reminded us that people still have the power, and our stories deserve to be told. But stories can’t tell themselves — we’ve got to roll up our sleeves and make it happen.
Start now: Chip in $10 to help Free Press Action continue to fight toxic propaganda while helping communities dream — and build — the media we deserve.
Some people think it isn’t worth fighting corporations and government actors that are so dedicated to oppression.
We think differently, and your support shows us that you do, too. Together, we’re holding those in positions of power accountable to the most vulnerable among us. And it’s working.
The Sinclair defeat is a defining moment, made even sweeter by the #CivicInfoBill victory in New Jersey.1 The new Civic Info Consortium, which will strengthen local journalism in the Garden State, is just one of the many innovations our Free Press Action team is developing in partnership with local communities. In time these innovations could transform the future of media.
Victories are pouring in because your support continues to flow. So let’s keep it going: Donate $10 or whatever you can toward our local and national work.
Media has the power to harm, and the power to heal. Which media are you building?
Let’s build a healing, restorative and just media together. A media that will heal not just today, but well beyond this time.
Thanks for all that you do—
Collette, Carrie, Joe and the entire Free Press Action team freepress.net
P.S. Help us continue to defeat the Sinclairs of the world — pitch in $10 or whatever you can toward the work of dreaming, organizing and building toward a better media.
