You Wanted a Better Way to Stay Informed.
We listened.
When The Preamble first started, it was simple: help people understand what’s happening in the world without feeling like they need to rage-quit the internet.
Over the past year, we’ve heard from tens of thousands of you — teachers, parents, journalists, community leaders — saying the same thing:
“I want to stay informed. I just need a way to do it that doesn’t leave me exhausted.”
So we built it.
The next version of The Preamble is designed around what you’ve asked for:
deeper reporting on the issues shaping your life,
a way for you to vote on what we cover,
and resources that help you do something with what you learn.
It’s still the same mission — to make sense of the world without losing heart — but it’s about to become something bigger, more interactive, and powered entirely by readers like you.
We’ll show you everything on Thursday.
Until then, thank you for making this possible.
Because The Preamble was built for you — and, in many ways, by you.
—Sharon McMahon & everyone at The Preamble
For those of you who aren’t yet paid subscribers, we have a special, limited time deal for you: Join as a paid subscriber before Thursday and get 20% off your first year.
I’m excited! You have been such a beacon of light for me since I found you post-Jan 6.
Reposting since so many still asking….
Friends, you do NOT need to do anything if you are already a subscriber of the Preamble. Sharon & team are making the changes on the back end.
Your current subscription status will remain as is, no change on your end is necessary.
Sharon is stating that if you are NOT a current subscriber; you would like to make a “change” to your subscription (ie monthly to annual); let someone you know who might be interested in; or if you wanted to gift a subscription- she is offering a 20% discount on an annual subscription right now for this limited time for the relaunch/new format of the Preamble. Again, subscribers do not need to do anything further otherwise….
