Dear FAIRites,
FAIR holds firm to its belief that documenting and challenging corporate media is critically important to maintaining democratic values. The news industry’s use of government officials, unnamed sources and right-wing think tank “experts” to distort the news needs to always be called out—now is not the time to let up on media activism.
Now is the time to support FAIR in confronting corporate media.
FAIR articles sent to our supporters and posted on our website are widely shared across the social media landscape. Recent articles getting special attention are part of our Election Focus 2020 work: “Corporate Media Still Waiting for Trump to Knock Over a Bank” and “What Media Like Best About Elizabeth Warren: She’s Not Bernie Sanders.”
We need you to help expand FAIR’s reach during this critical time of misinformation and outright lies. Your financial support is an essential part of this. We need a modest $10,000 to get us through the fall season. We will stop this appeal once we reach our goal.
YOU help us do this work every day with your donations.
FAIR’s work has inspired an energetic band of activists who challenge media coverage of everything from police brutality, the climate emergency, the continued dismantling of social programs and the massive Republican giveaways to the 1 Percent. These are the issues that affect people’s lives.
FAIR is powered by individuals like you who believe in the independent work we do here.
Thanks,
Jim, Janine & Deborah
P.S. By popular demand. For a donation of $35 or more, we’re keeping our fabulous thank-you gift: a T-shirt commemorating the 25th anniversary of Nirvana’s benefit concert for FAIR. The reissued iconic T-shirt has the terrific “DISinformation” art by Robbie Conal on the front, and two classic concert rosters listed on the back.
