But none of these obstacles should interfere with your right to access independent information on Azerbaijan. Meydan TV will use all modern technological means to break through the information blockade and bring objective and balanced news to viewers. We plan to implement various projects to stimulate citizen journalism, and your financial support will be invaluable to us on this journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meydan TV remains one of the few platforms where millions of Azerbaijanis can be heard.  Meydan TV has never resorted to elements that contradict journalism, such as \u201ccommissioned\u201d or \u201cmanipulated\u201d content. Coverage of phenomena in Azerbaijan such as corruption, bribery, clan rule, police violence, official arbitrariness, judicial lawlessness, and suppression of freedoms is not a foreign order, but the proud position of a free press in the most difficult conditions. The arrested Meydan TV employees, in their letters from behind bars, demand that we continue this activity. Your financial support is extremely important for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Democracy is turning from a global process into a local struggle for rights. Now each community must independently defend, preserve, or create its democratic values. In other words, now everyone is responsible for protecting their own \u201cmeydan\u201d \u2014 their own space. This poses a serious threat to free media in countries with authoritarian regimes. To counter this threat, we intend to transition to a community-supported funding model and are open to any suggestions, discussions, and assistance along the way. Stay with Meydan \u2014 stay with us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not just a donation \u2014 it is also an act of social responsibility!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We need the support of our community now more than &#8230; <\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more-container\"><a title=\"Support Meydan and defend your right to the truth!\" class=\"read-more button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.meydan.tv\/en\/support-us\/#more-2112\" aria-label=\"Read more about Support Meydan and defend your right to the truth!\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":333842,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_sitemap_exclude":false,"_sitemap_priority":"","_sitemap_frequency":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":{"0":"post-2112","1":"page","2":"type-page","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"infinite-scroll-item","7":"no-featured-image-padding"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Support Meydan and defend your right to the truth! - MEYDAN.TV<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.meydan.tv\/en\/support-us\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Support Meydan and defend your right to the truth! - MEYDAN.TV\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"We need the support of our community now more than ...
