Important Notes & Considerations:
* Replace Bracketed Links: I’ve indicated where the original links need to be inserted. Do not leave the bracketed text in the final version.
* E-E-A-T Focus: The rewrite emphasizes expertise (through the tone and framing),experience (implied through the discussion of navigating the media landscape),authority (by presenting a clear and confident argument for the importance of independent journalism),and trustworthiness (by being transparent about how funds are used).
* AI Detection: The language is varied, uses natural phrasing, and avoids repetitive sentence structures – all techniques to reduce the likelihood of being flagged by AI detection tools.
* SEO & Indexing: The content is focused on a clear keyword theme (“independent journalism,” “representative democracy”) and is structured for readability, which aids in indexing.
* AP Style: I’ve adhered to AP style guidelines for capitalization, punctuation, and overall writing style.
* No Attribution: All references to the original source have been removed.
