Fund appeal off to good start

February 21, 1996
Issue 

The 1996 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ Weekly $120,000 fund appeal has made a very promising start. So far, close to $13,000 has been collected around the country. Many cities are hosting 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ Weekly events over the next few months to raise money for the best progressive newspaper in Australia. The establishment newspapers include a very large proportion of advertising, which provides the bulk of their income. The news to advertising ratio is quite low. 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ stands out for its depth and range of news and comment, providing you with a much higher proportion of real news per page and therefore more value for money. However, because the $2 cover price doesn't cover the cost of 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ Weekly production, we need to raise extra funds to keep 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ in production. This is what the 1996 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ Weekly fund appeal is all about. If you appreciate the depth of information that 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ Weekly provides, as the leading progressive source of information from Australia and overseas, then please consider helping with the 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ Weekly fund appeal. Every contribution counts, whether large or small. Look out for 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ Weekly events to support in your city. These are advertised in the back pages of every issue of the paper. We rely on you. 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳ Weekly — it's your paper.
