You and 999 other listeners

The Best Thing That On the Media Did in 2018?

View this email in your browser Dearest OTM friend, This is the last Sunday of the year, and we have a special update for you. It's an urgent one. Last week, Bob put out a challenge - could we get you and 999 other listeners to step up for On the Media before December 31st? That's the number of new members we need to start strong in 2019 and to continue seeking nuance and context in our reporting. We're so grateful for the incredible outpouring of support we've had— we've heard from over 600 listeners already, but we need to hear from you to hit that goal in the next two days.  The data shows us that just 1 out of every 100 people that listen become members. So when we ask for your help, it's very likely we're asking you. If you care about what you listen to week after week, will you help support it? Support On The Media — Become a Member by Tomorrow at Midnight When you and 999 other people give, what do we do with that money? Your donation goes directly towards the very real costs of making the show. You provide the resources that it takes to get out of the studio, to get reporters on planes, to cover research, fact checking, gear. Your donation supports countless hours of production. But the most valuable thing we ask you to support is the incredible team that puts this show together every week. This week we re-released "The Worst Thing We've Ever Done." Bob calls it the best thing we've ever done, and he wasn't alone. Listeners like you let us know how the reporting affected your lives:  "The Worst Thing We've Ever Done" was one of the most disturbing and riveting things I've listened to "The Worst Thing We've Ever Done" changed my thinking "The Worst Thing We've Ever Done" was amazing. I think that was the podcast that made me donate And that is why we do this. We want to help you make connections that you might otherwise not have made. And bringing you depth and context in our reporting costs real money.  Join our challenge. Donate and become a member today to help us meet our goal of 1,000 new donors before tomorrow at midnight.  - The OTM Team Copyright © 2018 New York Public Radio, All rights reserved.
