I’ll let my unresponded-to reply to your fundraising message from last week speak for me (and, to be clear, FAIR isn’t the only “progressive” org this could be directed toward):
Hello
I just received your latest fundraising message, and I have to ask, to some degree – What’s in it for me?
I wrote a while back about my inability to access most of the site – the blog being the exception.
(Here’s the rest – for some reason the full post didn’t take)
Any other link just kicks me offline.
I made the point that not everyone is ‘puter-literate or has up-to-date equipment – that’s me on both counts – and that a supposedly progressive organization should have as a priority making sure that as many folks as possible have access to the information it provides.
Google has a low-ops version of Gmail that allows me to use it with IE 4.0 – how is it that a soulless corp can swing that, and you can’t?
You want my money – as little as I can spare – show me some commitment to fairness.
It’s in your name, after all.
(If form holds, there won’t be any response to this – but I feel a little better after writing it.)
