Hi there,

As the future of democracy in the United States hangs in the balance, the need for courageous independent media is more important than ever. Our reporting centers the voices of people routinely excluded from corporate and government-run media, such as those raising deep questions about war and peace, demanding an end to our global reliance on fossil fuels. Because we are audience-supported, we need your help today. Can you donate $15 to Democracy Now! today to support independent media? From now until Giving Tuesday, a group of generous donors will TRIPLE your gift, which means your $15 donation is worth $45. Please help us air in-depth, substantive coverage of the outcome of the election and what it means for our collective future. Thank you so much! Every dollar makes a difference.

Purdue University Campus Shooting Kills 1 in Indiana

HeadlineJan 22, 2014

A student at Indiana’s Purdue University has been killed in the nation’s latest campus shooting. Purdue University Police Chief John Cox said a suspect was in custody after carrying out what appeared to be a targeted attack.

John Cox: “This individual seemed to have had intentions for the decedent and took the action the individual took and then turned around and left the building and was taken into custody outside of the Electrical Engineering Building moments after the act by a West Lafayette city police officer that was arriving to assist.”

The shooting is at least the fourth at a U.S. school in the past week. Last week, five students were shot at middle schools and high schools in Philadelphia, Albany and Roswell, New Mexico.
