MT Campaign Coverage Fund
Hi there. I've been covering the 2016 presidential campaign in a variety of capacities for its duration, and it really has been gratifying to receive such regular feedback: glowingly positive, ferociously negative, and everything in between.
I would like to spend the final two weeks "on the road," talking to voters in some of the electorally-pivotal areas, rather than stay ensconced in my elite coastal enclave. (Heh, heh.)
Doing this requires funds for basic expenses. While I love and can't imagine doing much else, journalism/political commentary isn't especially lucrative. Therefore, I humbly ask that if you've appreciated my work over the past months to consider making a modest contribution. Again, the money would go to basic expenses: car upkeep, lodging, food, that kind of thing. I really have no desire to spend profligately.
If you've gained insight from my recent output -- whether on Twitter , the various outlets I contribute articles to, my YouTube channel, Medium postings , or elsewhere -- then you might consider a small donation so I can keep it going, and get on the road. If you've hated my recent work, that's OK too. I love my losers and haters. Love them. They're tremendous.
If I'm able to garner a decent sum, I'll head out soon, and though I can't make any iron-clad guarantees about the nature of my resulting coverage, I can guarantee that I'll continue doing my best. I prefer being indebted to my readers/followers instead of fellow media chatterers. Thanks!
