If you believe in the power of local journalism to hold the government accountable, to bring levity to your day, or to tell you something new about the region you love, please consider emailing [email protected] to save DCist. We rely on readers and listeners like you.

For fans and former employees you can access old versions of DCist in the Wayback Machine. This work will not be erased, the Internet is forever. You don't play with digital native journos! web.archive.org/web/2024022304…

Look at that list, and tell me that any pivot to audio will be able to cover the D.C. region now. Good luck with that, though.

While major publications like The Washington Post ignore our vital work, WAMU 88.5 + DCist have consistently told our stories and shared our resources with the DC community. Losing DCist leaves a giant vacuum in DC news—orgs and DC residents like us count on their reporting.

It is imperative that Sylvia M. Burwell, Seth Grossman, Erika Pulley-Hayes, and Michael Tribble #UnlockDCist. It’s a matter of democracy. See our letter below. We encourage you to share:
