FWD: Trump's return and the media we need

Friend, we just wanted to make sure you saw Jessica and Craig’s email from the other day. This is a terrifying moment in our nation’s history, but we’re determined to confront the slide toward authoritarianism.

Friend, in January, Donald Trump will become the president again — crashing into office on a wave of lies, racism, hate and other authoritarian tactics, egged on by a media system that puts profit over everything else.
We can’t pretend we aren’t devastated — especially for the communities that Trump put in the crosshairs to reclaim the White House. But we’re also reflecting on how we got to this point, and what it will take to build power to take on unaccountable billionaires — from Rupert Murdoch and Elon Musk to Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos — whose media empires have put our democracy at risk.
One thing we’re crystal clear on is this: Free Press Action has an important role to play in the months and years ahead. Our team has specialized skills that will be needed to confront and combat the country’s slide toward authoritarianism. We’ve fought a Trump administration and the media moguls enabling it before, and we’ll do it again.
