Did you see Stephanie’s email from earlier today? We’re forwarding it along just in case it slipped through the cracks.
Today is Giving Tuesday, which is important day for our non-profit newsroom because we’re reader-supported and rely on the generosity of people like you to fund our work.
That’s why we’re reaching out one last time today to see if you could chip in. We wouldn’t be asking for your support if it weren’t essential.
And, If you donate today, we’ll include our Gothamist rat tote bag (see below) with all monthly donations of $5 or more.
Thanks, - Team Gothamist

From: Stephanie Clary Date: November 28, 2023 To: news manola <facestuffs.aaaaa@blogger.com> Subject: news: Can we count on you to support local journalism
Dear News,
Hello! I’m Stephanie Clary, the deputy editor of the Gothamist and WNYC newsroom. I work with reporters and editors who do the New York-centered original journalism you listen to on the air, read online, and receive in your inbox throughout the day.
Today, on Giving Tuesday, we’re asking for your support to continue producing journalism that ensures everyone in our city can freely access reliable, trusted and engaging news.
Your gift can help us continue to hold powerful leaders accountable, which we did when we pressed Mayor Eric Adams about his solutions for a lack of affordable housing in an exclusive interview in front of a live audience. It also will allow us to answer your immediate questions during an emergency, like “how to protect your lungs” when our air reached unprecedented levels of pollution and the sky turned orange in June.
Your support will help our newsroom continue to produce investigative journalism on our site and podcast, like our series on how a doctor with an alarming past is still practicing in the Bronx.
As New Yorkers navigate inflation, a housing crisis and potentially new congressional district lines (yes, again), your gift is more important than ever. We are counting on your donation to continue this work into 2024 as we focus on an already contentious election.
Donating is Easy
We’d love to give you this popular tote bag featuring a charming NYC rat living its best life. (As a Gothamist reader, you know we regularly report on the impact rats have on daily life in our city.) This tote can be yours with a monthly donation of $5 or more.
Our mission guides our newsroom to make New York work for all New Yorkers. As a non-profit, we rely on the support of our readers to keep our essential news and culture coverage accessible to everyone.
