Can You Pour the Hollywood Progressive a Cup of Coffee?

Okay, make that two. Sharon and I both like to start our day with a hot cup of joe as we put out the morning newsletter, then rush off to our day jobs. We’re looking for 300 of our regular readers who can spare $5 a month to keep us in the rich, aromatic black. Click here if you’d consider being one of them. Or perhaps you could consider a larger one-time donation.

Truth is, we could continue just as we are financially far into the future, paying our server bills and related costs with the bit of advertising revenue we generate and the occasional donation.

But we’d like to do more than perk along. We think we could offer an even stronger service to the progressive political and cultural community if we could devote more time to our joyous obsession. Sharon’s becoming a lawyer is a big step in that direction. And I’ve taken the approach of growing older so I can retire into full-time work on LA Progressive. Your modest gift—just two cups of black coffee once a month—would accelerate that process, and you would quickly see the result.

That $5 a month from 300 regular readers would also confirm our sense that we’re on the right track. We welcome your thoughts in the comments block below for how the LA Progressive can best serve your interests or what you value about it now.
