Wow... great strategy! Can't wait to see how it works out for you guys! :)

Facebook's purge could be a blessing in disguise to Anti-Media and other independent websites with actual journalistic integrity. I wish you, the free thought project and many others, the best of luck.

Solid comments! I could not agree more. Without the "underground" of honesty, News will become nothing more than a 24 hour talk show format.

Nice to hear. Facebook needs to die already.

Keep it going, @antimedia ! Just joined Steemit after your suggestion and wish you the best of luck

Thank you @tagido! :) Bring your friends...

@antimedia @mintpressnews @greedmedia almost all my favorite news sites making the jump. Pretty soon I'll never have to get on facebook! Love you guys and wish you the best of luck!

Wouldn't it be great if we took all of our followers to Steemit and we never gave Facebook a second thought? :) We're really excited to be here and eager to see all of our fellow independent news outlets thrive here!

Haha, well I hope your followers listen better than my friends!

upvoted and resteemed! :)

Good move, both in terms of supporting independent media and in terms of generating revenue. We've all been generating billions of dollars worth of free content for Facebook for the past 10+ years. It only makes sense -- ethically and financially -- that people should get a stake in the wealth they are generating. I think when people realize what's going on here, we could very well see a mass exodus from Facebook. Hopefully. Why would you devote energy to posting, commenting, etc. for free while someone else makes money off of it when you could be doing the same thing on another platform and getting paid for it?

This is great news!!! It'll be good for Anti-Media and good for Steemit.

i'm really eager to see how this strategy works! :)

We're very excited!!

Awesome news, Steemit needs you.
