t r u t h o u t | The wealthiest 400 people in the US own more wealth than the bottom 185 million*. That's crazy.
Why isn't this disparity front page news every day? Truthout serves a growing community of readers, writers and activists who are working to make the "news" reflect the realities that are actually affecting the lives of our fellow Americans.
While the media obsesses about celebrity divorce and who Romney will pick to run with him, we're going to keep pressing issues like poverty, education, civil liberties and the creeping militarization of our society.
If you think it's important to hold accountable not only candidates but entire political systems, Truthout is the place for you. And if you believe in this mission, it's critical you support it. Truthout is almost completely funded by small donations from people who read our content. We like it that way because, without advertisers and sponsors, we're only accountable to the people we represent. But to make it work, we need your participation. Please make a tax-deductible donation tonight.
