But George is always all up in your business, trying to do what you’re doing. Including (actually, especially) when you’re trying to blog:

Fact:

Mother Jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and billionaires wouldn't fund the type of hard-hitting journalism we set out to do.
