Independent Media | Campaigning Journalism
Skewed news
Image description
The front page of a newspaper is illustrated. The masthead of the paper reads “Owner is a Tory donor”. Next to that is a box reading “Thanks ma’am! New Jubilee Bank Holiday”. The main headline dominating the front page is “In a spin! Man employed by No. 10 leaves”. The subheadline reads “Other man to get job. More inside”. Beneath that is a headline reading “UK economy bounces back!” Next to that is a much smaller box with the headline “UK Covid deaths hit 50,000”. The text is so small that a magnifying glass is illustrated over the text to make it visible.
We need your help to keep speaking the truth
Every story that you have come to us with; each injustice you have asked us to investigate; every campaign we have fought; each of your unheard voices we amplified; we do this for you. We are making a difference on your behalf.
Our fight is your fight. You’ve supported our collective struggle every time you gave us a like; and every time you shared our work across social media. Now we need you to support us with a monthly donation.
We have published nearly 2,000 articles and over 50 films in 2021. And we want to do this and more in 2022 but we don’t have enough money to go on at this pace. So, if you value our work and want us to continue then please join us and be part of The Canary family.
In return, you get:
* Advert free reading experience
* Quarterly group video call with the Editor-in-Chief
* Behind the scenes monthly e-newsletter
* 20% discount in our shop
Almost all of our spending goes to the people who make The Canary’s content. So your contribution directly supports our writers and enables us to continue to do what we do: speaking truth, powered by you. We have weathered many attempts to shut us down and silence our vital opposition to an increasingly fascist government and right-wing mainstream media.
With your help we can continue:
* Holding political and state power to account
* Advocating for the people the system marginalises
* Being a media outlet that upholds the highest standards
* Campaigning on the issues others won’t
* Putting your lives central to everything we do
We are a drop of truth in an ocean of deceit. But we can’t do this without your support. So please, can you help us continue the fight?

I don’t think the story is primarily for public consumption. It’s a warning to those in the know that the Americans are clearing the decks after their election.
Spun out of control! Very funny cartoon Ralph.
This is a story for grown ups who can tell their children about satirical humour, and how healthy it is for ones well being.
