Every month, millions of people read or listen to The Intercept’s reporting — but fewer than 1 percent of them donate to make it possible.
To effectively confront the powerful and expose corruption, our stories need to be available to everyone, not hidden behind a paywall.
Because we don’t charge for subscriptions or run ads on our website, we depend on committed and generous people who step up to become members and make our journalism possible.
This has been a challenging year, and we’re counting on Giving Tuesday to make up a significant fundraising shortfall. And with just 6 hours left, we’re only $9,000 short of our $90,000 goal: In other words, we need 1,800 more readers to give $5 before midnight.
If you’ve saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
With for-profit news organizations collapsing left and right, The Intercept is a nonprofit that publishes in-depth investigative reporting: journalism that actually uncovers new information and holds the powerful accountable.
Consider what the world of media would look like without The Intercept. Who would hold party elites accountable to the values they proclaim to have? How many covert wars, miscarriages of justice, and dystopian technologies would remain hidden if our reporters weren’t on the beat?
We expose the moneyed interests. We refuse to cozy up to those in power. And in the process, we make some powerful enemies. This kind of journalism is not cheap or easy, and we couldn’t do it without you.
That’s why it’s so important that we meet this goal by midnight. Donate now.
