For more than 10 years rabble.ca has been the place in Canada to bring together the stories of social movements, the perspectives of activists, and the voices calling for change. We do it with the help of people like you. rabble is movement and community built with no government or corporate funding. Please support our annual fundraising drive right now.
From seasoned and award-winning journalists like Karl Nerenberg, Naomi Klein, Murray Dobbin and Amy Goodman to citizen journalists reporting on the tar sands, the #Occupy movement, labour rights, the NDP, and lots more -- rabble is must have media, especially now. Democracy is on the move and like many of you we are in the thick of it:
• We were the first media in Canada to dedicate a special section to the Occupy movement.
• We have award-winning journalist Karl Nerenberg covering Parliament Hill and rabble.ca is now officially part of the Press Gallery.
• We have expanded our live video coverage of events.
• We are the place to be for NDP leadership news and discussion, with exclusive coverage and interviews.
• We continue to cover the crisis in Gaza, including posting reports on and from the Canadian boat to Gaza - the Tahrir.
• We cover the climate crisis, including the Durban Climate Change Conference and the Rio+20 UN Conference on Sustainable Development.
• And much, much more!
What can you do? Match your mainstream media spending! What do you spend on TV, newspapers and magazines? What about Internet costs? If each of the more than 250,000 people who visited rabble last month contributed just a fraction of what they spend on mainstream media, we could do so much. Can you donate at least a month's cost of your newspaper subscription, cable, satellite, mobile or Internet costs to independent media? We make every dollar count.
We rely on your financial support to create what rabble has become: a place for people to assemble and exchange ideas and perspectives and learn from each other. Only a few hundred contribute right now but we need thousands. If you already support us, thank you. Please consider increasing your support.
Match your media and please make a donation to the must-have media of rabble.ca. Thank you for your support.
