Project:

Imagine if mainstream news media sources actually provided the public with factual news and analysis free from the inherent biases associated with corporate advertisers, owners, and boards of directors. Imagine if the public were actually informed about pertinent local and global issues directly affecting them. Just what might occur? Would things begin to really change? Would people begin to understand the necessity of becoming involved in making a difference? We certainly hope so.


In response to the lack of objectivity within mainstream news media sources, Responsible Education and Media has launched the GET THIS... project. R.E.M. will be placing a series of informational advertisements in prominent newspapers in major cities throughout the United States. These "Info-Ads" will consist of artwork with factual text on topics including human rights, environmental protection, and animal advocacy. Our goal with these ads is to raise public awareness as to the importance of uncensored, unbiased and objective news and transform that awareness into positive action. Along with each GET THIS... "Info-Ad" will be a GET ACTIVE... section, providing the public with information on how to become personally involved in creating positive change.


GET THIS... GET ACTIVE. Coming soon to newspapers across the United States.
