Are you sweet on independent media?

Are you sweet on independent media?

Then you're in luck! There's still two more days to sign up as a sustaining member of the Media Co-op and be entered in the draw for $100 worth of fair trade organic chocolate, baking ingredients and juices from Camino! By signing up for as little as $5 a month--that's just $0.17 per day!--you join over 500 others in funding investigative, grassroots news locally, and nationally.

And a reminder to all our current sustainers (thank you for your ongoing support!): an upgrade of $5 or more per month will net you a one-year subscription to Briarpatch!

A big thank you to everyone who signed up already this month, and congratulations to Av Singh, who won last week's new sustainer prize of four DVDs!

So sign up by Sunday night, and own your media today!

Best,

Tim
Editor & member of the Montreal Media Co-op

Here's what others have been saying about Media Co-op membership:

"The Media Co-op goes in depth in covering stories that are underrepresented in the mainstream. They really pick apart issues and lay out how power works, and also profile people who are working to make the world a better place. You get to hear from people on the ground, not just politicians, police and PR people, about everything from street violence to farmland zoning to midwifery.

"Plus, as a member, I get to have a say in what gets covered and how the Co-op works. It feels truly democratic."
