Whew! That was one heckuva webathon. We originally set our goal at $200,000. When we met that goal before the halfway mark, we knew it was going to be a good year. But you surprised us again and on the final day, we blew past $370,000 for an incredible finish. Thank you for your support of our work!
Last year, your webathon donations made possible stories like these top hits:
Robby Soave's debunking of the media narrative about the Covington Catholic kid
Eric Boehm's infuriating story of the Michigan man whose home was seized after he underpaid his property taxes by $8.41
Zuri Davis' reportage about the huge NYPD pot bust that turned out to be a bunch of legal hemp
Elizabeth Nolan Brown's exposé on the Justice Department memos that reveal the truth about the Backpage.com investigation
Lenore Skenazy's sickening account of the parents who got hit by SWAT after they ignored a doctor's advice because their 2-year-old was feeling better
