MoJo Nominated for Online Awards

Get your news from a source that’s not owned and controlled by oligarchs. Sign up for the free Mother Jones Daily.


Hooray for us! Starting this year the American Society of Magazine Editors has decided to start handing out awards for online media, and Mother Jones has been nominated in two categories: news reporting (along with BusinessWeek, Slate, Time, and the Virginia Quarterly Review) and blogging (along with the Atlantic, the Economist, Foreign Policy, and the New Yorker). Wish us luck. Full list of nominees here.

DECEMBER IS MAKE OR BREAK

A full one-third of our annual fundraising comes in this month alone. That’s risky, because a strong December means our newsroom is on the beat and reporting at full strength—but a weak one means budget cuts and hard choices ahead.

With only days left until December 31, we've raised about half of our $400,000 goal—but we need a huge surge in reader support to close the remaining gap. Whether you've given before or this is your first time, your contribution right now matters.

Managing an independent, nonprofit newsroom is staggeringly hard. There’s no cushion in our budget—no backup revenue, no corporate safety net. We can’t afford to fall short, and we can’t rely on corporations or deep-pocketed interests to fund the fierce, investigative journalism Mother Jones exists to do. That’s why we need you right now. Please chip in to help close the gap.
