Talk:Democracy Now!

How is DN funded?

How is it funded? I greatly appreciate Democracy Now (after a few hours exposure) but knowing how it is funded would foster more trust. Trusting is knowing! Also, if I learned that it was supported largely by donations I would be willing to contribute, for example the price of a magazine each month. - thor - thorkr@gmx.de

Democracy Now is funded through donations. No corporate or institutional sponsors to create a conflict of interest. If you catch them on radio during pledge period, you will hear that they request for private donations, something that is not obvious on their archived show at their website. To donate, go to www.democracynow.org and pledge. They don't have magazines for you to subscribe to, but have various DVDs, books or speeches by reknowned progressives that you could have depending on the donation amount.
