For many years, I’ve relied on Truthout.org to talk about the things that don’t get full air time or full explanation on the major networks and news sources.

Just a couple months ago, a couple of major internet service providers put the squeeze on them — they started labelling all Truthout messages (which Truthout only sends to people who have subscribed) as spam. Essentially, they tried to throttle the websites visibility and source of funds. Yes, source of funds — it’s us, the readers. Truthout works by donation.

They’ve been hurting ever since. I gave them $100 back then, but I’m tapped out right now. Wouldn’t you give ten or twenty dollars to keep a source of news unbiased by big money corporate interests alive and talking?
