Help! CMD Needs You
I can't say it much plainer than this: Help! Our Center for Media and Democracy needs your support to keep our work alive and well. Many of you reading this appeal have assumed that others have been lending a hand, but we need your support as well. Please give now by clicking and contributing online here.
Our unique reporting and propaganda-busting at PR Watch and SourceWatch is not free; it just seems that way. We must raise more than a half-million dollars a year to support our work. We do it while refusing grants from political parties, government agencies, labor unions and corporations, in order to preserve our independence. Our work depends on individuals like you, and on a small number of grants from non-profit foundations.
Right now, we're hurting. This brutal recession has devastated the giving ability of individuals and foundations alike, and our income is showing the effects. We are a lean organization, and I can assure you that there is NO fat that we can trim at this point -- cuts are going to the bone.
Whether you have given to our work recently or not at all, please give now. We fully intend to survive this global economic unraveling and come back stronger than ever, but we can only do it with your support. Please, show you care and give now.
