Hi!

There had been two ways to support the Editorial Board—via monthly subscriptions ($6 a month or $72 a year) and annual subscriptions ($60, which is a 20% discount!).

A handful of regular readers of the Editorial Board are so enthusiastic they have asked how they can contribute more to a newsletter in plain English for normal people.

Well, now they can. The Editorial Board is among the first newsletters in the Substack family to offer the pay-what-you-want feature. It’s called “founding member.”

Working for the betterment of the common good has to be that way.

EB fans can now type in the amount of money they’d like to contribute to keep this train a-rollin’. Think of it as a tip jar—one that can hold as much as you want!

Parts of the Editorial Board will always be free (e.g., the new mid-afternoon Quick Takes). Working for the betterment of the common good has to be that way.

But Editorial Board readers understand their support is critical. Thanks to their love and commitment to the truth, this newsletter is making in-roads around the world.

It’s now syndicated by Agence Global and it appears regularly in Raw Story, Alternet, Washington Monthly and others. Now readers have one more way to help it grow. You can use pay-what-you-want if you’re a subscriber or if you’re new.

Thanks to everyone! This has been an amazing journey!

And it’s about to get better.
