Support Our Commitment to Independent Journalism

Consortium News is today launching its Fall Fund Drive so it can continue its mission as a trusted source of independent news and views.

Robert Parry founded Consortium News in 1995 as a place for journalists to publish stories their editors had killed after a Newsweek editor spiked one of his investigative stories because “it wouldn’t be good for the country.”

Not much has changed in the United States. The rulers of our country still want to bury the truth.

Now more than ever, we need credible, independent journalism. Consortium News has had an unwavering commitment to principled, nonpartisan reporting since Parry started the site.

After losing Bob earlier this year, his commitment to independent journalism lives on with Consortium News. That commitment can be seen in the stories we continue to publish, such as persistent nonpartisan analysis of the so-called Russia-gate scandal.

Today, our fall fund drive begins, and we are asking for a commitment from you. We are setting our fall fund drive target at $35,000, the amount needed to continue our independent journalism, which has been challenging misguided conventional wisdom for more than two decades.

Help us take Consortium News into its next phase as a trusted source of independent news and views.

You can donate here by credit card online (we accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover), by PayPal (our PayPal account is named after our first email address, “[email protected]”), or by mailing a check to Consortium for Independent Journalism (CIJ) at 2200 Wilson Blvd., Suite 102-231, Arlington, VA 22201.

We are registered with PayPal’s Giving Fund under the name Consortium for Independent Journalism. And since we are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, donations by American taxpayers may be tax-deductible.

Consortium News is not beholden to any government or corporate special interests. We are funded through small donations from readers. Every donation is important to our survival—and the survival of independent journalism.

Please donate today, so we can strengthen Consortium News and honor Bob Parry’s legacy with an unwavering commitment to credible journalism.

Thank you for your support.

    Poor student here but after discovering this site during 2016 and being a daily reader since, I will pitch in my small monthly donation.

    I am not a wealthy man, so I trust that my sincere moral and verbal support for CN will not be disdained.

    I trust that CONSORTIUMNEWS staff will extend this freedom of speech panegyric to embrace, and publish, opinions from commentators who respond to the articles at Consortiumnews.com, no matter what the tone; rancorous, hostile, false, true, glib or with sincerity and terseness.

    I look forward to your staffers welcoming writers such as; Bonnie Faulkner, Ralph Schoenman, Roger Waters (Pink Floyd), Loretta Napoleoni, Harold James, Mark H. Gaffney, Greg Palast, Sanislav Lunev, Burton Hersh, Graham Allison, Donald Gibson and more !

    I’d be most happy to expand this, my anxious list of hopefuls, upon request from CONSORTIUMNEWS.
