Legacy media is failing us.
They are often too slow, too sanitized, or too distant to show you what is actually happening. As we’ve seen with recent legacy media layoffs, entire visuals departments are being scrapped in favor of relying on unvetted content from social media.
Giving the full context of a story requires a professional visual journalist, not viral content from Instagram. Legacy outlets rely on press releases; I rely on being there.
But to be perfectly frank, independent reporting is expensive, and dangerous.
The Solution: Field Notes Press
To help us all meet this moment, I am launching Field Notes Press, a 100% independent media outlet dedicated to covering the stories about modern-day America that you won’t see on network news.
Your support goes to all aspects of running this outlet: travel costs, insurance, equipment, and compensating our growing network of contributors, just to name a few.
We don't want to create paywalls; we want everyone to be able to see what's happening, and can only make that possible through your generous support!
