Things are hot, hot, hot in the world right now. But yet once again, ordinary people are taking control of their own lives and forging their own destiny — a destiny they share with all of us. Decades of organizing are culminating in real policy changes, and it seems that some folks haven’t forgotten that if we stand together, there’s no limit to what we can accomplish. Amazon workers at three warehouses walked out for better pay and working conditions, the main teachers union in Puerto Rico forced a major wage increase, the Environmental Protection Agency is finally taking environmental racism seriously, the National Labor Relations Board is cracking down on Starbucks’ union-busting efforts, and Rep. Ilhan Omar is standing up to warmongers. On top of all of that, a new app developed by Daily Poster reporter Walker Bragman and friend of the Poster Alex Kotch to help diversify our incredibly constrained media environment is now live — and you should download it posthaste!
All that and much more in today’s You Love To See It, exclusive for supporting subscribers below.
I don't get it. You mention a new app by Bragman and Kotch, offer a too-vague description, don't mention the app's name, insert no link to a landing page or other info... and then don't bring up the app again, even as a snippet at the end of this post. C'mon, guys!
I am pretty sure the app "OptOut" is what is being referred to -- and can be accessed in the piece above: "Like Independent News? Try this"
Seems to be, thanks! Signed up for the OptOut newsletter. (I do not download apps and can't read sh*t on my tiny phone screen — but will follow on laptop as best I can.)
There's still no obvious connection (actually, no connection) between the vague no-name invite at top and the "Like Independent News?" blurb at bottom. From a marketing standpoint, there's no excuse for this, unless you're actively seeking for this new project to fail.
I doubt you're trying to fail, so please do better with your promotion! Readers deserve better. You deserve better. Thank you!
