Donations received as of 9/14/25: $240
The Moderate Voice hasn’t done a fundraiser in quite a while — and now is the time. TMV is one of a small number of traditional news-political blogs that remains in a social media-powered era. Its posts appear on a phone news app and also on Google News. Over the years, it won various awards and some well-known print and broadcast journalists have praised it.
The time has com for a needed fundraiser. TMV gets a modest bit of advertising but it has no big corporate sponsor, no political group bolstering it, no big donation from an individual. It will be increasingly adding more variety (entertainment reviews, book reviews etc) going into 2026, a critical mid-term election year.
So if you can give a little (and we’ll accept a lot, too) please do. Just click on the Go Fund Me icon on the right OR simply go here.
Thank you for your attention in this matter.
