This is an email that was received from The Epoch Times. Hopefully, this message is approved.

Dear Reader,

Thank you for opening up this email today. We know it can be hard to read everything in your inbox, especially during the holidays, so we truly appreciate it.

You’re receiving this email because The Epoch Times is running a Giving Tuesday campaign; you might have received a similar one this morning.

I wanted to take a minute and give a little more context around this campaign, and what I want The Epoch Times to stand for in today’s America.

Many Americans have lost faith in this country after November 3. I’ve seen them myself. I don’t blame them––from almost every direction, they hear that the election is finished and that the results are in.

But that’s simply untrue. There are still so many legal disputes and pieces of evidence to be investigated. Reality is nowhere near as clean-cut as many outlets make it out to be.

In a time like this, my vision for The Epoch Times remains unchanged. We will continue to report according to Truth and Tradition like we always have. My hope is that we can break through all the falsehoods that Americans are now made to believe and be a reminder of what is real, what is fact, and what our country is supposed to be.

This is why I’m asking for your help today. Suppression against outlets like The Epoch Times has worsened following the election. Many platforms have sidelined and demonetized our content, making it more difficult for us to show Americans what’s going on.

With your help, we hope to have the resources to be more adventurous in our marketing and reach more people. We want to give them the most accurate journalism so that they can see for themselves why they shouldn’t give up hope.

Most importantly, we want to show them that they’re not alone...

There are many people like you and me out there who will keep fighting until we can get America back to how she used to be.

Thank you to those of you who have already given. And no matter if you give or not, thank you for reading our news.

Many of you write to tell us that we give you hope, but you do the same for us. Each and every one of our readers is a sign that the American values we fight for are still very much alive.

In Truth and Tradition, 

John Tang
