Friends:
If you’ve been reading this newsletter, you know we have been breaking open stories that are so often ignored by corporate media. We’re able to do that because we are 100% grassroots funded by subscribers. And now we’re trying to expand our work.
That’s why I’m asking you to go to sirota.substack.com/subscribe and pitch in to become a supporting subscriber of this newsletter. Whether you become a $5 a month subscriber or an annual subscriber, every subscription helps.
If you’ve been following our work, you know that we broke open the story of Andrew Cuomo granting immunity to nursing home executives after getting big campaign donations.
We broke open the story of the Trump administration delivering a huge gift to Wall Street after a Trump-boosting super PAC received a $3 million donation from a private equity billionaire.
We’ve been reporting on the protests against police violence, the out-of-control spending on local police — and how Republicans defunded the police we actually need.
The American Prospect recently said that our reporting “typically dares to go into hidden corners to expose deceit, for which we should all be grateful.”
We have been able to do all of this and more because supporting subscribers have pitched in to help us.
Please go to sirota.substack.com/subscribe to help us continue to expand.
With your help we can change the media and build a sustainable model of journalism that scrutinizes power. The only way to do that is through grassroots funding.
Thanks for considering this.
Rock the boat,
Sirota
