Subscribe to TruthOut

TruthOut is an excellent free news service.
It leans a little to the left, but mostly it seem to focused on being the opposition -- presenting the stories and voices that the Powers That Be would rather not have heard. I am very much down with that. And they have been very focused on the wars in Iraq and elsewhere, and the War on Terror -- two of the greatest threats to freedom so far this century.

They have a website loaded with dissident and lesser-seen articles, and a daily e-mail newsletter that looks something like this:

Perhaps the coolest thing about TruthOut is that they create a permanent archive copy of all the articles they feature, no matter the source. So even if the original website puts the article in their for-pay archives, or takes it down, TruthOut has a copy. I use TruthOut for a lot of the news items I post at PNAC.info, and it's great to not have to worry about those articles disappearing. They include a link to the original with each item, so folks can see the article in its original form if it's still available.

I've been receiving TruthOut's e-mail updates for about 6 months now, and I've been a monthly pledger for a few months, and I'm a very satisfied customer.

At the very least, subscribe to their e-mail updates. You can always unsubscribe if you don't like them.

I would also encourage you to support them financially, and will do so more thoroughly in another action item.

I am a retired old man of 75 yrs but have
been getting your articles for some time but have
not received any of your articles for several days. Is it because I have not sent in a donation? I would if I could but really think you are doing a great service for the American people in educating them what really is going on and how the Bush government is leading us all to fascism. Keep up the good work.

We have not been receiving the truthout messages, so I just re-subscribed. We have missed the information. Thank you.
