Sacramento Bee asks for donations


The Sacramento Bee is asking for donations.
The paper has partnered with the nonprofit Local Media Foundation, which is accepting contributions on the paper’s behalf at givebutter.com/sacbee.
The paper aims to raise $200,000.
“Your tax-deductible gift will help us continue to report on the coronavirus and all of its impacts across our communities,” the paper says.
When the pandemic started, the paper made coronavirus coverage free, putting it in front of a paywall. “That meant we didn’t ask people to subscribe. We’ve slowly started to put reporting that’s not in the interest of public health behind the paywall and we hope you understand why,” says the paper.
McClatchy owns the paper.
