Support independent media—support Daily Kos

The traditional media is not our friend. 

That’s not a controversial stance, but the notion of the “liberal media” has been a hindrance for progressive power-building. It’s not their job to be our friend, but unlike conservative donors, who never tire of building new friendly media outlets, liberal donors refused to do so because, you know, “liberal media.” 

This year, the progressive movement saw the folly of that belief. And it brings home just how important it is to support real progressive media like Daily Kos. 

So yes, I’ll be asking you to subscribe. And if you already subscribe and have the means, you can now give gift subscriptions!
