As our Charter Membership Drive continues, a few words from a Crosscut Public Media contributor

What does Crosscut bring to the Northwest media ecosystem?

It brings great writing and in-depth analysis about the region by people who know what they're writing about. In this time of huge media shifts, when daily newspapers are dying and so is your favorite neighborhood bookstore, when Twitter and mobile broadcasting from your iPhone are ways to help you navigate the new media landscape, Crosscut provides a platform that offers terrific written content in the electronic forms that keep people informed.

Crosscut is a magnet for talented writers and thinkers who love this region as much as I do, and who still believe the power of words will endure beyond the printed page. Help ensure diversity and invaluable in-depth regional news and analysis in this electronic age. Please join me in supporting Crosscut Public Media with your time, your comments, and your Membership. Thank you.
