John,

Have you seen one of these billboards lately?

You're not alone if you’re wondering what’s up with these billboards. Millions and millions of American have seen these bizarre advertisements for the “#1 Trusted News” source The Epoch Times in big cities and large interstates across the country.

We’ll tell you more about The Epoch Times below (and why their billboard campaign should alarm you), but if you’re ready to make a difference in COURIER’s fight against right-wing misinformation, can you chip in $10 to support our honest journalism? [[link removed]]

Far from America’s “#1 Trusted News” source, The Epoch Times is a right-wing propaganda outlet that’s publishing dangerous misinformation on everything from January 6th to COVID vaccines.

You wouldn’t get that from their billboards or marketing. They brand themselves as a “truly independent” news organization. They’ve run ads under the banner of “Pure American Journalism” or “Honest Paper.”

The truth is far darker.

During the 2020 election, The Epoch Times spent millions in advertising for Donald Trump. In fact, the outlet spent more money on social media advertising for Trump than any other organization outside of the Trump campaign.

That’s not all. The Epoch Times has made millions propping COVID-19 misinformation, the Big Lie, and other baseless conspiracy theories. All the while, they’ve been masquerading as trustworthy independent journalism.

We see right through them, but what about those who exclusively get their news from social media? What about the thousands served daily with a barrage of ads saying The Epoch Times is trustworthy, real news?

We founded COURIER as the good information antidote to the bad information that outlets like The Epoch Times push. We deliver factual stories to the online spaces where people actually spend their time. We fight misinformation from The Epoch Times and other right-wing bad actors at its source.

If we’re going to keep exposing right-wing propaganda outlets like The Epoch Times , we need resources to keep our newsrooms running. Will you pitch in $10 to help us continue the fight? [[link removed]]
