Fundraising Update: Our final week of coverage

Dear readers and supporters, I have dreaded writing this update for a long time, but we currently do not have enough funds to continue the daily operations of the web site. If our financial situation does not drastically improve, this will be our last week of coverage, with the final date of coverage coming on Sunday, Feb. 3. I'm working on several different ideas to hopefully extend our reporting, but I felt it was important to update all of you on our current situation.
