News is vital to our democracy. Media workers play a critical part in holding public and private institutions accountable. But shadowy investors like Alden Global Capital, a Wall Street hedge fund, have quietly taken control of many newspapers, laying off scores of reporters at Digital First Media and slashing staffing levels to a fraction of their former size.  You can help us save quality journalism. Citizens, journalists and media workers nationwide are joining together to prevent companies like Alden from destroying newspapers and the crucial role they play in our democracy.  Join us!
