America narrowly missed another major news network falling into Trump's personal patronage system. We need to fund independent media. Our funding goal is ambitious for a publication our size, but a rounding error compared corporations and men like Ellison. Help us meet it gofund.me/31dac76b6

Petition: Ban foreign media ownership, enact a social media levy & new regulatory reform
Pass law to ban foreign & offshore ownership of UK media, enact a social-media levy to distribute media ownership across society & fund independent, local & cooperative-owned media. We believe democracy is failing as the media & political power are owned by a tiny rich elite.
