John,

Trump held another campaign rally last Wednesday in Wisconsin, and boy was it… something 😳

CNN’s fact-checkers reported on his speech and found that he told more than 30 lies— That’s one lie every three minutes .

Here’s a few of the most egregious highlights:

* Trump lied about winning Wisconsin in 2020. He lost by more than 20,000 votes.
* He claimed the world was “at peace” in 2020 despite there being numerous ongoing armed conflicts during that time.
* He said inflation under Joe Biden has gone up to 50%, nearly 2.5 times the actual number.
* Bizarrely, he claimed that “hundreds of thousands of dollars of cocaine” was found at the White House.
* And, of course, he lied again by saying that he lost in 2020 because Democrats “rigged” the election

Here’s the thing John: CNN and other fact-checkers did important work reporting on Trump’s lies and telling the truth about his Wisconsin speech. Unfortunately, the vast majority of Americans may never see that work.

As newsrooms around the country get bought up by right-wing companies like Sinclair, lay off their staff, or close their doors entirely, more and more Americans find themselves in news deserts without access to reliable reporting.

In many cases, that means the only available news sources are right-wing media outlets or social media feeds. So instead of seeing the fact-checked version of Trump’s speech, they’re getting Trump unfiltered (or worse, amplified by conspiracy theorists and hyper-partisans) – and they have nowhere to turn for the truth.

That’s where COURIER comes in. Our research-backed approach allows us to meet people on their social media feeds and stop right-wing misinformation in its tracks.

We provide free, factual local news in eleven battleground states where quality local news is hard to come by. And we’re not afraid to call out Trump, Fox News , and other Republicans when they lie or spread conspiracy theories to win.

If you’d like to support our eleven battleground newsrooms and the important work our reporters do, can you chip in $20 now? [[link removed]]
