For the past 30 years, journalists have watched as private equity firms hollowed out storied publications, tech companies plundered and plagiarized their work, and politicians made propagandastic demands.
And though @TexasObserver has always existed precariously, it’s lived on because people who give a damn have donated to it.
Personally, I believe crowdfunding is a way forward for journalism, and @TexasObserver has tapped into something special.
