*DONATED
BECAUSE IT MATTERS: It may sound generic or cliche but I donated because it
matters. I'm just a grad student at UCLA not making much money yet, so I only
give what I can but every little bit makes a difference. Without our
contributions, Reader Supported News cannot persist and without independent,
reader supported groups like RSN, big, corporate owned and sponsored news wins
and that would be a big loss for "We The People." This is what the founders of
our country had in mind, not big media and misinformation giants like Fox News.
I really hope that more and more RSN readers and the media consuming American
public in general come to realize. Your reader truly. / Nicholas
