A very quick note of thanks, on this Thanksgiving weekend, particularly to those of you who have answered the call in our recent fund drive. We’re still figuring out how to survive through our tenth anniversary in January (and hopefully well beyond!), but to those of you who have helped get us this far with your contributions, we are incredibly grateful.
We’re still working to figure out how to make our work sustainable without having to ask for your help as we do. Those who know me realize that I really hate doing so. Nonetheless, without an angel or three showing up, or even one or two percent of our daily readership signing up for sustaining monthly contributions (see below!), I’ll have to keep asking.
One more idea for now to both help us continue our work and help counter the rampant corporatization of everything in our world (which is what, ultimately, makes it so difficult for us to continue our completely independent muckraking and trouble-making here): Instead of giving your money to major corporations on “Black Friday”, considering sharing some with us instead. Or, if you are planning to “save” money by spending it on “Black Friday”, please consider sharing some of your savings with us! We’ll call it “Brad Friday”! Either way, we promise to put your contributions to much better use than Target, Best Buy or Walmart will…

Thanks Brad. Just signed up for a monthly… cheers.
Thank you, Kevin! Greatly appreciated, amigo!
Reporting, investigation, writing… it’s really tough work people. Help Brad continue his hardline approach. It is sorely lacking in much of today’s reporting, and you really should support it with whatever you can.
