Introducing Battleground Allies
Letter from the Publisher
14 June 2025
Dear Readers,
In critical times, independent journalism is worth fighting for.
It’s why we named ourselves The Battleground when we set up six years ago. We could see the growing threats to democracy and independent media, and were determined to counter them.
Now, after building an audience of over 500,000 across Europe, North America and the rest of the world, it’s time to secure our future for the long term.
As readers of The Battleground, we are asking you to support us in our mission.
Become a Battleground Ally by taking out a paid subscription to our newsletter. This is optional, not a prerequisite to receive it.
Your support will enable us to strengthen our team, challenge the far right forces that are gaining ground across continents, and keep our journalism accessible to all.
As a Battleground Ally, you will also help fund a new, inside look into our work: what we do, why we do it, and how it influences global politics.
Help us rise to the moment and continue the fight.
Thank you for your support.
Natalie Sarkic-Todd
