June 30, 2015 11:04

The Australian Labor Party has launched a new crowd-funding campaign to help fund its new newsletter The Labor Herald, seeking $30,000 on the Pozible website.

The launch of the “Crikey style” newsletter was first mooted in April of last year with the ALP finally appointing former Kidspot editor-in-chief Alex Brooks as editor in April this year.

According to the Pozible campaign the new service will be “a progressive website with a weekly email that’s FREE to everyone and anyone who wants to take a squiz.

“But while the Labor Herald comes for free, it won’t cost nothing. Which is why we want you to be a part of it. The Labor Herald aspires to be curated and created by the people who really make politics happen – YOU!”
