I subscribe precisely because I’m hoping you will make a difference. Our politics don’t align immensely, but I think we both agree this is one of the most important issues of our time. Good luck. Go get em.
With utmost respect for the FP & it’s reporting, the #TwitterFiles was NOT good investigative reporting...you were given “access” over a week long period by the OWNER of Twitter, who has an agenda. Although I’m disturbed by govt interactions with Twitter, I certainly believe there were also substantial interactions by extremely conservative voices, & continues to be.
That being said, I’m very grateful for the overall quality of writing, perspective, reporting & COMMON SENSE.
What I was thinking about when watching the Youtube video was what happens when speech is suppressed. When people aren't informed about what is happening with Covid for instance, they can't make informed decisions. When the vaccine came out, I immediately thought, they haven't tested this drug. The drug administration cannot know that it is safe. There is no way...I then wondered how people can be so blindly willing to put something into their bodies without informed consent. Do people have that much trust in the media and government or was it fear? Or both? How can you have informed consent without knowing the facts? I guess I haven't trusted the government since I started watching politics when Trump came into office. Also, watching people start their own media videos and starting to trust some of them. I guess there are some that just don't question what they hear, see or read even when it comes to their lives. Trusting agencies or the government to have your back. Government is just made up of people that happened to get hired, not on their merits, bureaucrats that slog through life, that just happened to be given more power than they should have. I talk to people that think the government is some brilliant, intelligent body of people that can save you. It is made up of mediocre people, most of who do not take responsibility for their actions and do not have the best interest of the American people, at all.
It took a while for the world to realize the insanity that were the Salem Witch Trials. One of these days the world will say what were we thinking? Hopefully before it is too late for the US.
Your reporting has a had a real world impact on me personally. The greatest isolation I felt during the pandemic was the intellectual isolation I felt for asking what seemed like obvious questions about a variety of issues from the possibility of a lab leak to social media bans to transgender issues. Thank you for reminding me that I'm not alone.
One measure of impact? Maybe when a great grandfather finds today's honest Free Press and learns a lot about important issues that previously confused him. Thanks.

Bari Weiss and Nellie Bowles and their news organization -
The Free Press
The NY Times must really be scared of you and Nellie, they could not bear to print the Free Press as the source of the original story they were opinionating on
Thank you for your incredible reporting. Thank you for trying to get to the truth no matter if it fits neatly into a narrative. The mainstream media here in New Zealand is an embarrassment
My monthly subscription is the best money I have spent in years. I love what you do, I love your dedication to truth & the high quality journalism you deliver, I love the difference you are starting to make. Thank you.
Bari, I’ve been following you since I read your epic resignation letter from the NYT and have been so impressed with you ever since! Keep up the good work! And I look forward to TGIF every week! Go Nellie!!

You guys are saving journalism

The truth will set us free.
We love the Free Press. Hopefully more of the media will 'smell the coffee' and figure out what people really want.
Fascinating and frightening. Just wanted to share.

We’ve all been caught in the Matrix the last few years.
Endless lies from narrative control mean you don’t know what is real.
Democrats (and Liberals here in canada) celebrate that.
I hope people remember that.
