The World

The bad news about the economy just doesn’t stop. Home prices fell more in January and consumer confidence fell to a five year low. Yikes. It’s times like this that we just want to go back to our rented apartment and curl up by the space heater with a big bowl of comfort food. But can comfort food be TOO comforting?

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
