Folks,

Today’s The National Pulse will be a little different. In fact, it will be a little different for at least the next week, as we adjust to staffing changes and, frankly, changes in reader demand.

We’ll assess how the changes have worked after week one, and seek your feedback along the way.

Paying supporters of The National Pulse have made it clear to us that they are not so concerned with the pace of the news we provide throughout the day, but rather that we get it all accurate and readable in short bursts.

So today, instead of posting every news story we come across immediately, as we have for years, we’ll assemble an end-of-day newsletter to be distributed primarily to our paying subscribers. Because without them, frankly, we wouldn’t even exist today.

The newsletter will also go online, on this website, and will be accompanied by video content and external links where relevant.

A few years ago, many of you came with us on a journey to build a new, radically independent news experience, and that experiment was a raging success, especially during the Republican primary and general election.

But as the world changes, so too do people’s news-consumption habits. And we’re excited for those of you who will join us on this new path to providing useful and honest news content that respects your time.

I urge you to sign up to make sure you never miss a beat of the Pulse.

Kind regards,

Raheem J. Kassam

Editor-in-Chief, The National Pulse
