Good journalism is costly but lack of good journalism is even more so.

Great. There are many news outlets, Bolts among them, that are much more deserving of, and in need of, support than the establishment press.

Support independent, nonprofit, and local news.

Thank you @taniel.bsky.social and @bolts.bsky.social !
Not surprising that it is a nonprofit outlet that is providing it.

Most states have judicial elections, they matter too.

This is one reason we need good state and local news.
