THE ZEPHYR/PLANET EARTH EDITION
NO JOKE…WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW.
The Zephyr has never had so many readers and so few financial supporters. Since we re-vamped our web site two years ago, The Zephyr readership has expanded 10 fold and the feedback is encouraging. At the same time our revenues continue to dwindle. We know, in some ways, we are our own worst enemy—The Zephyr does not accept corporate funding, nor do we depend on massive gifts from rich individuals. We don’t get advertising from national chains and we don’t charge a penny for you to read our publication.But as we approach the 25th anniversary of The Zephyr next March, we are struggling. It’s our intent to keep going beyond 25, as long as there is an interest and the support. In this 21st century world of corporate media and dumbed-down journalism, if you think a fiercely independent, combative, intelligent publication like The Z is worth keeping alive, we need your help now.
Thanks,
Jim & Tonya Stiles
