Stay independent please - and poor. Of course, I'll have to keep subsidising you with my subscription. SIGH.

My take is that we should not honor Republicans by calling them pro-life. They don’t get to have that title by any measure, Democrats are much more for the living. I would label her an anti-choice republican or a republican who opposes reproductive rights for women. I have never been part of the Stacy Abrams fan club and I agree with your heading on the interview.

True they only seem concerned about life before birth and then only for the right type of people.

I can't even fathom getting my news from a television or a newspaper anymore. I love this new genre of independent journalism and your newsletter is one of my favorites. Your integrity is the real deal. All of your work with Virginia and the other survivors was so awe inspiring to me. Keep doing exactly what you are doing. When you ruffle feathers, that means you are asking the right questions. Thank you for all that you do!

Thank you Michelle for making this work possible

That’s what I love about you. You keep it a buck 💯 with all of your guests. Democrat or Republican you’re gonna report and tell the story. That’s refreshing.

thank you Pasqual!

I am a fan of Stacy Abrams. I was very disappointed when Biden did not choose her as vice president. I think the headline about not conceding lacks context and could easily be misinterpreted. That said, I listened to the interview and thought it was very good.

I appreciate your feedback!

Your interviewed with Stacey Abrams was one the best interviews I’ve listened to in a long time. Her explanation about the SAVE Act needs to be plastered everywhere so more people understand what the real issue is. Great work!

Tara Palmeri's avatar

thank you so much Sarah! I appreciate your support

We all have to look in the mirror at some point and decide if we like what we see. You have earned my trust in your reporting, Tara. Thank you for having integrity.❤️

Tara Palmeri's avatar

Thank you Lisa, I will keep working everyday to keep it.

Margaret Kennedy's avatar

Yup. We're all a long time dead. All we have is our integrity as part of our legacy. Don't squander it.

Stick to your convictions Tara! We need your kind of journalism. What happened to you is exactly why politics on both sides in the USA has a serious trust issue! The political and legal system needs to be rebuilt and streamlined based on a foundation of honesty and moral values - that is what builds civic pride and greatness in a country. Its time to build thinking of future generations and a cause greater than yourself. No time left for self interest, political gamesmanship, treating the voting public like stupid pawns to be manipulated, etc. Your time has arrived.

Thank you

Good for you and the respect I have for your reporting is very strong. You are honest and respectful and have integrity! Keep doing what you’re doing!

Thank you Jodi!

This is precisely the reason it's so important to supplement your daily/network news with independent journalism.

There are still great journalists in network jobs. Margaret Brennan is one example. (Can you imagine how hard it must be for someone that sharp to have to work within the confines of CBS?)

But these days, when Corporate Owners of newsrooms are shaping headlines...I turn to Tara Palmeri, Scott McFarlane, Terry Moran, etc. to get me the full story. (And more often than not, it's Independent Journalism that breaks the really big stuff. Because they can follow truth wherever it goes.)

Thank you for your support Benjamin

I love your reasoning for creating The Red Letter; it's why I subscribed and how you handled both of these interviews and not backing down strengthens my choice. Thank you and stay strong!!!
