The Newsbud.com Kickstarter campaign is officially underway. The goal is to raise $950,000 in pledges by April 14, 2016 and it's an all-or-nothing proposition; either the funding goal is reached and the project goes ahead or the goal is not reached and no money is collected. So if you care about independent, people-powered media, please consider making a contribution. The details are up at Newsbud.com and Kickstarter.
