So much political coverage focuses on the back-and-forth of partisanship that you鈥檇 think you were watching a game, focused on the big personalities (the players) and the jostling between just two parties (the teams). But politics isn鈥檛 a sport. Politics is about people. And that鈥檚 where MinnPost puts our focus: serving everyday Minnesotans like you.
Just look at our coverage so far in 2025. As major federal policy shifts have been enacted, the talented team in our nonprofit newsroom has been less concerned with the bravado from Washington and more focused on helping you and other Minnesotans navigate the changes and understand the consequences they鈥檒l have on our local communities.
And did I mention that we make all of this journalism paywall-free? If you believe in MinnPost鈥檚 coverage and our community-focused approach, we need you with us. While our work might not be a viral ratings bonanza, it鈥檚 essential to serving people like you, so you can feel empowered and equipped to shape our state鈥檚 future.

P.S. And just to be clear: I like sports! It鈥檚 a great way to take a break from politics and enjoy something thrilling and just for fun, like reading Britt Robson鈥檚 deep dive on the Timberwolves. But sports and politics are different things, and they should be covered differently. We get that at MinnPost. If you do, too, I hope you鈥檒l donate today.
