t r u t h o u t | With the media conglomerates drooling at the prospect of *unlimited money* for *unlimited political advertising*, you can bet that the flimsy firewall between news editors and corporate executives will all but disappear.
That is, in fact, the reason Truthout rejects advertising - we do this in order to build a different model: a trusted information source that's *free from the chains of shareholder profits and insider influence-peddling*. In order to continue to achieve this, we need your financial support and your continued advocacy for independent media.
If you have a few extra minutes tonight, please take a look around the Truthout [ http://www.truth-out.org ] and BuzzFlash [ http://buzzflash.com/ ] websites, and consider supporting this work in whatever way you can. We're working daily to build a values-based discourse that is essential to the progress our species must make - and must make quickly - but we need the participation of our readers tonight.
