Friend,
My team just finished crunching the numbers. I’m thrilled to announce that, just three months into 2025, Young Voices has hit two new records for our media placements and reach promoting free markets and individual liberties.
#1 - January was the best month for media reach in our organization’s history, with 16.1 MILLION viewers. Our network of nearly 100 writers across North America and Europe produce op-eds, appear on broadcast interviews, and make public speeches in schools defending free enterprise and limited government through the Dissident Project. We track our reach diligently using listening software including CoverageBook, Critical Mention, and Rephonic.
#2 - We have already surpassed our article reach for 2024. As of the end of February, 17.3 MILLION people have read our articles in 2025, compared to 15 million in 2024. This tremendous increase is explained by the fact that our articles are frequently syndicated now on major websites now including Yahoo News and MSN.com, particularly our articles placed in The Hill, USA Today, and RealClearPolitics.
The bottom line: Young Voices is the movement leader for placing rising talent in mainstream media. But, don’t just take my word for it. Our critics on the left agree, too!
Last week, Young Voices was profiled on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Late Night Live — in what I consider the most flattering hit piece we've ever received. The guest, progressive British journalist Olly Haynes, attempted to smear Young Voices as part of a vast right-wing conspiracy, but oddly enough kept talking about how effective we are in placing media.
Here’s how Olly responded when asked by the host if we’re effective at promoting our writers’ careers:
"Yes, I think so, not least because [Young Voices] provides training for some of these people that go on to high-profile positions. Some of the alumni from Young Voices now work in editorial roles at the Daily Mail or they’ve gone on to the kind of libertarian think tank world and gained a bigger platform. They get their start there, they get their training there, and the kind of experience you need to break into journalism, which, as a young journalist myself, I know is quite difficult. And then they go on to have more influential positions once they've been formed ideologically and trained at Young Voices."
I couldn’t have said it better myself! Young Voices is empowering tomorrow’s leaders for liberty today with media placements promoting free markets and limited government.
Sincerely,
Casey Given
President & Executive Director
