You're the boss!

Wow! In the first 10 hours of the campaign, 200 of you have become our owners. Between you, you've invested £37,800 - almost 20% of our target! We are absolutely overwhelmed by the support we've received so far. You've flooded us with cheques, emails, calls and online investments and we cannot thank you enough.

Meanwhile here at Positive News HQ we are getting ready for our official launch party in London tomorrow evening. If you happen to be in the Chancery Lane neighbourhood and wish to attend, please email [email protected] and we'd love to add you to our guest list.

As part of the launch, we have set up a Thunderclap. This means that at 6pm tomorrow, we'll all be sharing the same social media post to get the message out far and wide. Signing up takes just 30 seconds and would really help us in spreading the word.

As a tribute to all of you early investors, we would like to quote just one of the many heartwarming messages we have received. With you as our owners, we are ever-more confident that we can change the news for good. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

"Positive News is not only pioneering a more constructive, balanced and inspiring form of journalism, it's offering some clear and workable alternatives to how the media is owned and run. For both these reasons it is crucial that everyone who really values its work supports it. You've our support in every way we can offer it."

It's refreshing to be given the opportunity to be part of genuine change. The owners and decision-makers that make up the Establishment need to be challenged about the way they behave, the way they decide what "news" articles to report (and the ones they ignore) and then how they report them. Enough is enough. Good Luck to Positive News!
