Drop Site has launched a new Whatsapp Broadcast Channel to share our reports, livestream broadcasts, and breaking news updates in real time. Followers will be notified of new investigations and some of our more important reporting. The volume will be far lower than our social feeds, but higher than our email cadence.,. Features of One-Way Channels:
Getting honest journalism out to audiences today is a constant battle against Big Tech algorithms designed to suppress reporting that produces discomfort for the powerful. That’s one reason we lean so heavily on email, a distribution system that is significantly – though not completely – resistant to algorithmic suppression. By diversifying our distribution channels, we make it harder for those companies to suppress our work. WhatsApp is an important node in that strategy, as it allows us to reach you directly on your phone or other device. So if you already use WhatsApp, consider joining the channel. (And remember to open our emails as often as possible even if you don’t have time to read them. Engaging with them makes sure they stay out of people’s spam inboxes.)
