An oft heard phrase is “I want my country back.” This show is based on this premise: If you want your country back, you first have to take back your media, as it is currently owned by those with more of a political agenda, than a news agenda.

Today’s media has become lazy, complacent and corporatized. The bottom line is no longer accurate reporting or investigative reporting. The bottom line has now become the bottom line. It’s all about the money. Consolidation. Monopoly. Tax breaks. So guess which political party the collective media tends to support?

Here’s the deal, folks. Progressive media doesn’t curry the favor of corporate America. Therefore, in order for it to succeed, it depends on the support of non-corporate America, in short, you. Because of the right’s assault on the media over the past 25+ years, it is becoming more and more difficult for progressive voices to be heard, especially, in the field of talk radio. The one equalizing factor that can make a difference? The only equalizing factor? Money.

You see, when you do talk radio that is critical of the Bush administration, the Clear Channels of the world aren’t exactly beating down your door offering you $25 million a year, an unlimited supply of drugs, and a compliant house keeper to boot. Therefore, again, it’s up to you. If you understand the importance of progressive media, you need to support it. And sadly, the primary support progressive media needs is financial. We wish it weren’t so, but as the saying goes, wishing doesn’t make it so.

Anyone who knows us has said this show has great potential. Many people who do not know us, but have heard the show have said this show has potential. We believe this show has potential. Granted, we’re a little biased, but I’m just saying…

We have countless ideas for different directions in which to take the show, whereby it remains informative, entertaining and unique. We are committed, passionate and believe in what we’re doing. We believe a progressive show should progress.

Each show we do, we do for you. And now, quite frankly, it’s up to you. Help this show grow and develop to its full potential. Please support this show as generously as you can.

This show is an ongoing, monthly project, and thus, the expenses are monthly as well. Therefore, what we really need are individuals/organizations who can contribute to the show on a monthly basis. If not, come next month, this whole vicious “fund raising cycle” begins anew and takes time away from important research and show development - not to mention - ensures a constant environment of uncertainty that makes the money aspect the most important issue and not the show itself.

Big or small, whether it be $25, $50 or $500, we need your contribution to be a monthly one.

We thank you. And so does your country.
