ESSICA DESVARIEUX, PRODUCER, TRNN: Hey, Real Newsies. This is Jessica Desvarieux, Capitol Hill correspondent for The Real News. When you're on the Hill, independent media can be hard to come by. Corporate sponsored media focuses on the horse race of elections and is fixated on the politics and not the policy that affect every day people. But here at The Real News we want to get beyond the theater and get to what's behind the image: green. We're talking about money. We follow the money and we aren't afraid to talk about what interests are really swaying policy. And we bring you the voices of those who are fighting for a more democratic society.So if you support hard-hitting, uncompromising journalists, give to The Real News. We can't make it without you.
