Dear BINJ Readers,

HERE’S YOUR CHANCE! You’re already on Medium so this will only take a second. Become a BINJ Reporter Supporter for as little as $3/month and help us fill gaps in the eroding media. Like Oliver says, “Sooner or later we are either going to have to pay for journalism, or we are all going to pay for it.”
