The DawnWatch website is a base for the news alerts -- a place you can look to for pointers on various topics. News alerts are emailed to you, at a rate that averages about one per day, depending on what is happening in the major media. Each news alert will cite a story or article that concerns animals (sometimes a story on health or nutrition) and provide an email link to the media source. You only have to click a button to dash off a quick note and make your voice heard - or amplified 50-500 times!
DawnWatch will generally alert you to front page stories in major papers, or national animal media stories. But the point of DawnWatch is to encourage activists to stay in friendly contact with the media. That includes, particularly, your local media, which DawnWatch may not cover. So please don't rely exclusively on DawnWatch alerts. Your local station wants to know what you think of its programming. And some local papers, which are widely read, print close to 100% of letters they receive. DawnWatch is pleased to help you find the correct address for feedback to your local media, or to help edit your letters.
