Popular Information - Popular Information's future
Popular Information's futureIn March 2020, I took down Popular Information's paywall. Since then, each edition of Popular Information (767 newsletters!) has been freely available to everyone. And over the last four years, we've been able to produce journalism that rattles the cages of the powerful and creates change. Here are a few examples:
To ensure Popular Information can continue to thrive without a paywall, we need 50 people to upgrade to a paid subscription in the next 24 hours. Your support will help keep Popular Information's groundbreaking accountability journalism accessible and maximize its influence. As a special incentive, for one day only, we are offering 20% off the subscription price. Popular Information was featured in the Washington Post as one of a handful of "news outlets reimagining political journalism in smart ways," commending our work for "addressing some of political journalism’s long-standing shortcomings." If the discounted cost of this newsletter ($4.80/month or $40/year) would create any financial strain, please stay on this free list. But, if you can afford it, please consider upgrading to paid now. |
