A Giving Tuesday message from Between The Lines' Executive Producer Scott Harris:

For my birthday and Giving Tuesday this Dec. 3, 2024, I'm raising funds for Squeaky Wheel Productions, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) distributor of our 33-year-old media project Between The Lines Radio Newsmagazine -- and your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate $5 or $500. Every little bit helps.

One critically important takeaway from the 2024 election is that disinformation and misinformation was a determining factor in how millions of voters chose a presidential candidate to support. Blind polls have found that a strong majority of voters reject Donald Trump and the Republican party's authoritarian, austerity agenda driven by hate, fear and scapegoating the most vulnerable people in our nation, be they immigrants or transgender kids.

Too many voters now rely on right-wing propaganda outlets, podcasts and social media for their news, leading millions of our neighbors to vote against their own economic self-interest and personal moral conscience.

The information war now underway in the U.S. will determine whether or not our nation's multi-racial democracy survives!

As we prepare for the dark days ahead under the next four years of Trump Regime 2.0, Between The Lines remains committed to amplifying the voices of progressive activists, journalists and scholars to counter the extremist right-wing disinformation machine that now dominates our broken media system, and clearly influences the outcome of U.S. elections.

Please consider making a tax-deductible contribution. A payment processing fee will be deducted from your donation. Meta no longer covers this fee. We'll send a donor acknowledgment letter for your tax purposes.

Thank you!
Scott Harris
