Support justice-driven, accurate and transparent news — make a quick donation to Truthout today!
Occupy Wall Street is in its third week, but even though the local media teams have been doing extraordinary work, the money media are still covering the protest as if it were a wildlife park. If the networks won’t bring the protesters into the studio, we’re going to bring a broadcast “studio” to the protesters. Yup, it’s another collaboration from GRITtv, The Uptake, Free Speech TV and the Media Consortium. TODAY, from 4-7 pm eastern, we will produce a three-hour special show featuring coverage of the Occupy Wall Street Labor March on satellite in all 50 states on Free Speech TV and online here.
An urgent appeal for your support: 10 Days to raise $50,000
Truthout relies on individual donations to publish independent journalism, free from political and corporate influence. In fact, we’re almost entirely funded by readers like you.
Unfortunately, donations are down. At a moment when independent journalism is urgently needed, we are struggling to meet our operational costs due to increasing political censorship.
Truthout may end this month in the red without additional help, so we’ve launched a fundraiser. We have 10 days to hit our $50,000 goal. Please make a tax-deductible one-time or monthly donation if you can.
