As we end a long, busy year of news and head into what’s sure to be another, I wanted to take a moment to talk about what I think Vox does best and why I hope you’ll continue turning to us in 2025. 

When the news cycle gets chaotic, Vox provides clarity. Then we do something more: We locate the larger stakes in what’s happening and help you understand what really matters. We believe that creating a better future starts with understanding, but it doesn’t end there. We strive to help you understand not just what matters but how to think about it and what to do about it.  

Covering what’s happening in our society is a core mission of Vox, and so is focusing on the issues shaping our world that don’t get enough consideration. I want to call your attention to a few examples I’m especially proud of:  

We know the world is changing in profound ways that require journalism that’s honest, independent, and clear-eyed — and also journalism focused on ideas and solutions that can help us all build a better world. 

If you believe in our mission at Vox, I’d like to ask you to consider supporting our work as we head into 2025. Member support is what makes our work possible. And for a limited time, we’re offering a 20 percent discount on our annual membership. 

Thank you for being part of our community. I look forward to what we will accomplish together in the coming year.

Sincerely,
Swati
