FUNDRAISING….Yesterday, responding to Kevin?s post asking for your financial support, one of the commenters, JS, wrote:
Think of it this way:
Rupert Murdoch subsidizes the Weekly Standard.
Reverend Moon subsidizes the Washington Times.
YOU could be subsidizing the Washington Monthly.
That pretty much sums it up. Conservatives have been very smart to fund their own media. It?s given them forums to try out new ideas, vehicles to inject those ideas into the public debate, and whips to crack whenever they think the mainstream media is getting out of line.
If you think there ought to be an alternative to the rightwing media, one that is more honest, fair, and fact-based, but that is not imprisoned, as the mainstream media so often is, by the fear of being labeled ?biased? for the simple act of calling it like it is; and if you think Kevin and the rest of us at The Washington Monthly are doing this, then please help us by clicking the button on the right and contributing whatever you can.
About half the budget for the magazine and this site comes from subscriptions and advertising. The rest comes from donations. So your contributions really are important.
