Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
So, I just read this over at Dallas Blog:
...A small group of influential women who work across the political spectrum raised money for Ed Oakley at a coffee Tuesday at the home of Lucy Billingsley, where Oakley said his polls show him two points ahead...
And then I read Tom Leppert's most recent financial reports, filed with the City Secretary's Office ... what, yesterday? And whose name was at the very -- and I mean, very -- top of Leppert's donor list but Lucy Crow Billingsley, who gave the other mayoral wannabe $5,000. So did her hubby Henry. I do believe that's called covering your ass. Me, I do it in $30 Levi's. --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.
