Just made a new video! I arbitrarily cut it at 2:00 to fit Twitter's limitations... There's about 27 more seconds not shown. Still got a bunch of other stuff to do, then this'll go up on the homepage.

As a woman who owns 2 small struggling newspapers where an elderly, vulnerable population needs me to bring them information on a regular basis - it's about creating a financially independent press. There are zero newsrooms turning a profit yall.

It's about an income to pay for employees, taxes, utilities, a press room, press operators, insurance. Etc. How do we create a media with an income to support itself?

Clearly, the people of Salem want the truth about city government. In one day, they donated enough to @SalemReporter’s Disclosure Fund to cover half a $4,000 records bill. Here’s why the fundraising campaign is needed and how you can help. salemreporter.com/2022/11/13…

It’s helpful for local publishers to see other local publishers have success. It’s clear that @nytimes isn’t the only one that can do paid digital subscriptions. We’re doing everything possible @paywallproject to make the tech stack more affordable for all local newspapers.

Thank you so much for teaching us everything we needed in order to successfully add the digital aspect to our hometown newspaper!! It is so important to work with a company that cares about our subscribers on the same level we care.

If Twitter goes away, can we go back to reading and supporting newspapers?

3 years ago when I purchased my local newspaper to keep it from shuttering, @paywallproject found us, heard our heart for our community, and jumped in to help. Amazing values, amazing people!

Possibly the best decision I've made as an owner of 2 small southern wv newspapers. @paywallproject gives us the tools to understand our digital impact, and our reach is further than I dreamed possible.
