Support Needed for Independent Journalism
The upcoming November election holds significant consequences for the future of democracy. Readers of The Nation understand that the struggle for justice, equity, and peace extends beyond this election period. Sustained and fearless journalism is critical in advocating for transformative ideas, exposing corruption, defending democratic principles, securing bodily rights, promoting peace, and protecting the environment.
This month, The Nation seeks support through monthly donations to continue its commitment to independent journalism. The readership’s appreciation for the publication’s truth-to-power reporting underscores the inadequacies of corporate-owned media. Becoming a monthly donor provides the most effective support by establishing a stable funding base.
In the coming months, the publication’s writers are dedicated to delivering essential information: John Nichols will cover the election, Elie Mystal will focus on justice and legal matters, Chris Lehmann will offer insights from Washington D.C., Joan Walsh will provide political analysis, Jeet Heer will contribute his sharp commentary, and Amy Littlefield will report on the battle for abortion rights. A monthly contribution as modest as $10 can support these efforts, empowering writers, editors, and fact-checkers to delve deeply into critical issues.
Setting up a recurring monthly donation today will join readers with a committed community that sustains this journalism for the long term. For nearly 160 years, The Nation has championed truth and justice. Reader contributions are crucial for the publication to continue thriving for the next 160 years.
Sincerely,
Katrina vanden Heuvel
