t r u t h o u t | Mainstream media is a heavily choreographed cinematic pro=
duction, typified by celebrity news anchors who disingenuously shift their =
facial expressions and intonation from story to story. Their objective is t=
o draw you in with news that is entertaining but unchallenging. After all, =
to them, you are nothing more than a consumer.=20

At Truthout, we don't see our writers as talking heads or our readers as co=
nsumers. We approach publishing with the belief that there is an interconne=
ctedness between our contributors and the issues they dedicate their lives =
to investigating, analyzing and writing about.

Our readers are also an integral part of that process. You support our work=
 on issues that impact all of our lives; you read, share and engage with th=
e stories we publish; and you give us feedback that shapes our mission.

The truth is that we wouldn't exist if it wasn't for you - you make what we=
 do possible. We need your help now to ensure that Truthout can remain free=
 of commercial ads, independent and strong, publishing news on a daily basi=
s. Please, make a tax-deductible donation tonight! Every single donation co=
unts.
