The Intercept - 8 hours left

I’m going to be honest: I don’t like asking for money, and I know you probably don’t like being asked.

But with just 8 hours left to reach The Intercept’s September fundraising goal, I want to make sure you know what’s at stake.

Without The Intercept, who will break through the Pentagon’s propaganda to provide critical analysis and independent reporting on U.S. militarism?

Without The Intercept, who will take on the truly difficult investigations — the ones that require costly technology and legal expertise — to pull back the curtain on corporate and political corruption?

This goal is real. We budgeted to raise $500,000 this month. So far we’re still $130,000 short, and if that gap doesn’t close, we’ll be facing some painful cuts.

Fewer than 1 percent of Intercept readers give to make our nonprofit journalism possible. Can you become a member right now and help us meet tonight's critical deadline?
