Autocratic forces are ascendant.

Truth-telling independent media is one remaining bulwark against an autocrat’s unrestrained exercise of power. At a time when billionaire owners of corporate media are making accommodations to political leaders, our nonprofit newsroom cannot be bought, bent, or broken. Depend on it, and please stand with us.

Autocratic forces are ascendant in America. But truth-telling independent media is one remaining bulwark against the unrestrained exercise of power. At a time when billionaire owners of corporate media are making accommodations to political leaders, our nonprofit newsroom cannot be bought or broken. Please stand with us.

Genius host Rachel Maddow is graciously doing a fundraiser for Mother Jones in San Francisco this Saturday; we thought that as a thank you to all of MoJoBlog readerdom, we’d give away a pair of tickets to one of you. Let us know in the comments if you’re interested–we’ll pick one commenter at random by Thursday night. Make sure to register so we have a way to contact you. See you there!

UPDATE: And the winner is… commenter No. 2, reyonthehill! We’ll email you about how to get a hold of your tickets. (I’m trying to figure out how to embed a picture of the random.org result, but can’t seem to get it to work. Sorry!)
