## About

In These Times arrives monthly with the rhythm of a labor organizer's newsletter: picket lines, grievances, municipal fights, rarely a cable-news chase. The magazine assumes its reader already believes capitalism is the problem, which frees it to spend words on tactics instead of debate. That is why it reads more like an internal movement document than a quarterly of opinion; the address is inward, which is exactly where its influence lives.

- **Funding:** Financed through subscriptions and donations; advertising-free; nonprofit structure
- **Focus areas:** Labor and union organizing, economic justice, racial justice, feminism, environmental politics, grassroots democracy, media criticism


## What the position means

TOLD classifies what an outlet publishes over time, based on ownership, funding
and focus. It describes a pattern; it is not a rating of quality and not a
ranking. Nothing in TOLD sorts, hides or promotes a source by its position.
State-aligned and partisan outlets are in the catalogue on purpose, labelled.

## Assessment note

Latest assessment: 2026-04-14. Generated with TOLD Source Prompt Brief v1.2.7. TOLD summarizes framing patterns and third-party classifications; it does not assess factual accuracy, intent, or legitimacy. External classifications: 8 (3 themes).
