Garrison Keillor | Hors d'Oeuvres! Hors d'Oeuvres in the House!




Reader Supported News
17 September 19

RSN is a project with a purpose. We are doing this to effect change. Every single person at this organization is dedicated to putting an end to the corruption that has become our country. We did not get here on a magic carpet, we took the bus. What we see lacking in America's fourth estate today is moral honesty. You know when you come to RSN that you will get the straight story, and the backstory.
Think it's not important? Watch any of the political analysis shows on TV. What in the world are they talking about? It's astounding, it's like they are all lobotomized, it's excruciating. Who is going to really challenge this nonsense? We do, every day.
When you contribute, that's what you are contributing to. That's what you get for your money.
If you hang out ... chip in.
We love you,
Marc Ash
