Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
The City of Dallas, case ya didn't know, has a water-conservation effort called Save Dallas Water -- catchy, no? And just a few moments ago, it posted to the YouTube an animated short starring the mascot cleverly named "Dew," cute. Only, c'mon, City of Dallas, give credit where it's due. Because next to the video it only says "a clever DISD student came up with this amazing animation," without mentioning the aspiring animator's name and where he or she goes to school. Which, frankly, sucks. --Robert Wilonsky
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
