Come On Folks!
I Really Need You To Get Behind ICH
Our
readership had another huge increase last month, and our daily
newsletter goes out to over 71,000 people around the world, each day.
The
website itself has over 28,000 articles and hundreds of video, images
and audio files spread out over 3 servers, all of which together with
editorial, wages and general expenses depend on you the reader to fund this low budget, independent news service.
This
is one of the few non commercial sources of news and information on
the web. While many of us complain about main stream media we have to
act to ensure that an alternative not only survives but prospers,
because "Liberty cannot be preserved without a general knowledge among
the people" - John Adams - Second President - 1797 - 1801.
To whom will you entrust your liberty? Who will you rely on to tell you the hard facts? Who will you trust to collect and deliver vital information to your email inbox?
