*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 Thibeault*
