Last week when I was talking to Luis Moreno-Ocampo, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, he said, “Guess how many fugitives ICTY has?” ICTY is what cool people call the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia. “ICTY has 161 indicted criminals. Guess how many of them are fugitives.” I didn’t know. “One! It took a long time, but there is one remaining fugitive.”

Well, not anymore.

LESS DREADING, MORE DOING

This is the rubber-meets-road moment: the early days in our first fundraising drive since we took a big swing and merged with CIR to bring fearless investigative reporting to the internet, radio, video, and everywhere else that people need an antidote to lies and propaganda.

Donations have started slow, and we hope that explaining, level-headedly, why your support really is everything for our reporting will make a difference. Learn more in “Less Dreading, More Doing,” or in this 2:28 video about our merger (that literally just won an award), and please pitch in if you can right now.
