Status Lou is Going BACK to East Palestine NEXT MONDAY

Louis DeAngelis will be ON-THE-GROUND in East Palestine NEXT MONDAY and early next week to check back in with local residents and gather the latest.

Status Coup Community,

We’ve been covering East Palestine since the first day of the disaster on February 6th. And were ON-THE-GROUND in East Palestine for several days last week speaking to local residents who expressed fear about the potential toxins their bodies are exposed to, the safety of the soil they rely on for crops, pollution in the streams their kids play in, contamination in the wells that they drink from, and chemicals in the air they breathe every day. Yet, after several government town halls, East Palestine Residents STILL have NO CLEAR answers.

Status Coup will be sending Louis DeAngelis back to East Palestine Ohio and surrounding communities NEXT MONDAY, to get updates DIRECTLY from impacted community members. We NEED YOUR HELP. Between a reporter, videojournalist, and other costs, this kind of ON-THE-GROUND reporting is extremely expensive for a small, independent outlet with ZERO corporate funding. Can you can help support this trip and others by becoming a member today with membership fees starting at $5 per month?

How we are able to fund important reporting ON-THE-GROUND is through our paid members. Join Status Coup’s membership to help support REAL INDEPENDENT coverage, with memberships as low as $5 monthly.
