Hi there,

I believe that people who are concerned about the climate catastrophe, economic and racial justice and war and peace, are not a fringe minority, not even a silent majority, but the silenced majority—silenced by the corporate media. That's why we have to take the media back—especially now. But we can't do it without your support. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

      As Democracy Now! reported yesterday, a group known as the Biotic Baking Brigade hit Chevron CEO Ken Derr in the face this Wednesday with three pies in protest for his company’s involvement in the killing of activists in Nigeria, as well as for polluting California’s northern coast. The brigade has targeted numerous other “corporate bad guys,” including the CEO’s of bioengineering companies Monsanto and Novartis, economist Milton Friedman and San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown. For that “pieing,” three members of the brigade are now serving a six-month prison sentence.
