Spread the Word about Democracy Now!

We need YOUR help to spread the word about Democracy Now! Unlike the corporate media, Democracy Now! does not have millions of dollars to advertise our news program. We rely on YOU to tell others about the independent, unembedded journalism that Democracy Now! provides its audience daily.

Below are a number of ways to spread the word about Democracy Now! If you have any questions or wish to share stories about your efforts to get the word out, email our outreach team at: outreach@democracynow.org or call 212-431-9090 x802
