“The strongest bulwark of the capitalistic system is the ignorance of its victims,” -anarchist Adolph Fischer
Hey folks,
This is Jordan Chariton of Status Coup. I began with this quote that I love because, to keep it real, today we need YOUR help.
As we’ve increased our in-the-trenches reporting on protests, environmental disasters, and political corruption—while also paying freelance journalists and video journalists—our costs have shot up. As a result, I’m directly reaching out to ask for your support as a Member or with a Donation.
Simply go to https://www.StatusCoup.com/Join and fill out the information and join at any level $5 and up! Once finished, all Member benefits on the website will unlock such as exclusive Member videos, behind-the-scenes content, and a link to our monthly Members-only call with yours truly.
Alternatively, you can also visit https://www.StatusCoup.com/Donate to set up a one time direct Donation, or recurring Donations of any amount and recurring time.
Recently, we’ve unfortunately been dealt a loss of financial backing from a larger outlet that was providing us with $1,000 a month in funding help. On top of that, we’ve also had significant revenue loss due to a tech glitch on our now defunct old Status Coup website (our current members site is great!). As such, we could really use your help so we can continue the unique ON-THE-GROUND REPORTING that only Status Coup is consistently doing. In case you missed it, our recent reporting includes:
-Covering over 50 Ceasefire/student protests in NYC, D.C., and LA since October.
-Filming on location in Flint and then producing/releasing ‘Flint Fatigue’, a full-length documentary on the 10th anniversary of the ongoing Flint water crisis—and cover up.
-My on-the-ground reporting in East Palestine, OH continuing to cover the government COVER UP following the Norfolk Southern derailment/detonation in East Palestine.
And so much more thanks to you and others’ help!
Bottomline: it takes A LOT of resources and funds to do this kind of reporting (just the Flint documentary alone cost us $5,000 between travel costs and paying a filmmaker to produce it). Our funding comes from YOU. That’s how we stay Independent and FREE of Corporate Control.
I challenge you...think about what you spend $5-10 bucks a month on. It could be 1 cup of coffee, or 1 Big Mac. For that amount you could help FUND our reporting so we can keep reporting on Flint, the Free Palestine movement, East Palestine OH, and so much more!
Once a Member, you'll get EXCLUSIVE content, such as recently released membership videos, UNCUT Interviews from the ‘Flint Fatigue’ Documentary, and more. It's super easy to re-sign up on our new site. Follow these steps.
