Let's make Steemit a haven for Progressive journalists!

in #journalism7 years ago (edited)

We need to launch a concerted effort to get journalists who challenge the status quo onto the Steemit platform!

We just had the wonderful @leecamp and @caitlinjohnstone join us. Who else do you think we should try and persuade to join this platform?

A few of the people I think should be reached out to and persuaded:

  • Kyle Kulinski (Secular Talk)
  • Jimmy Dore
  • Glenn Greenwald
  • Jeremy Scahill
  • Matt Tiabi
  • Julian Assange
  • Chris Hedges
  • Ed Schultz
  • Edward Snowden
  • Chelsea Manning
  • Amy Goodman
  • Cornel West
  • Nick Brana
  • Joe Rogan
  • Peter Joseph

Who else would you add to this list?

Very cool to see others posting about this. Jimmy and I have been chatting and I think he is on his way. :)

Some more news about indy journos joining Steemit can be found on my blog. We have collectively established a Discord server to support indy journos and their followers who have moved to this platform too, anyone who would like to be a part of it can feel free to reach out to me.

Cheers,
Suz

This is great! I think these truth tellers who are used to censorship and trolling will be very pleased with this platform. I have never used Discord before, but would love to be a part of this initiative to reach out and get more indy journos to join. I have followed you and will also be sure to watch your blog for news on the progress of this initiative.

How about Abbey Martin, Russell Brand, Lee Fang, Mike Figueredo, David Doel, Aaron Mate', or even Cenk Ugyur or Anna or John Iadorello or one of those fucks from TYT lol

Those are some great people to try and persuade, especially Abbey Martin!
