Dear colleagues, Like us, many of you are likely experiencing some combination of concern, sadness and fear about the outcome of the 2024 presidential election. As the Columbia Journalism Review?writes?today, “A second Trump administration is poised to be devastating to journalism.” We understand the clear and present danger to individual journalists and the institutions they represent.?Now, it is imperative that funders step up to safeguard this work.?Your role in helping to reclaim these narratives is crucial in empowering journalists, filmmakers and storytellers to investigate, report, and hold power accountable. By investing in independent journalism and storytelling, you are investing in the truth, transparency, and the very foundation of our democratic society. In November 2016—in response to funders’ concerns about what a Trump presidency would mean for journalism—MIF started organizing monthly calls to help journalism and media funders make their work more effective and efficient through peer learning and strategic partnerships. We’ve been hosting these calls ever since. In addition to our monthly call schedule, MIF is also offering the opportunity to join a special funder briefing on how we can and should move forward with our work under a second Trump term. Please join us for an online meeting on Tuesday, November 12, from 2-3 p.m. ET.?The briefing will provide a platform for funders to discuss strategic responses between now and Jan. 20, big picture threats to the field, and what the field is already doing to mobilize efforts. Please note: You do not need to be actively funding media and journalism to attend this call. We encourage you to share this invitation with any funding peers in your network who are curious about the role media and journalism can play in supporting democracy.
