These are tough times in news media. Cutbacks cost Michigan’s newspaper newsrooms nearly 40 percent of their entire staffs in the past 20 years. In response, Bridge built a team of professional journalists with nearly 200 years of combined experience to help all Michigan residents stay informed.
Thank you for considering this request. Financial support from readers just like you is truly crucial to Bridge’s public service mission to bring you the state’s best journalism.
How much is it worth to you to stay informed on statewide affairs? You set the price of Bridge - $25, $50, or $100 truly makes a huge difference. Special Offer: Readers who contribute $10 per month via credit card or $200 or more total in 2016 will receive a complimentary copy of “Poison on Tap,” Bridge’s first-ever book, a collection of our coverage of the Flint water crisis explaining how and why it happened and what it means for the whole state. Please consider helping Bridge today!
