What is MVP doing about the media, disinformation, etc?

In short, we’re organizing the internet. MVP is investing at least $5-10 million in 2025-2026 to build progressive new media, from state-level digital organizing to youth and cultural organizing online.

Problem: Progressive new media is unorganized and underfunded.

The age of legacy media is ending. Up until now, movements for progress have struggled to adapt to the new, fragmented, algorithm-first digital landscape.

Solution: Treat digital space like organizing space – and fund accordingly.

The right currently dominates digital culture by treating online platforms as core organizing terrain — meeting places, not just megaphones. To compete, we must set aside a “digital as an add-on” mindset and build infrastructure that meets voters where they truly are: in algorithm-driven, decentralized communities where media consumption is often passive, rather than active.

MVP Strategy

Right now, the progressive new-media landscape is underfunded, underdeveloped, and unorganized. In 2025-2026, MVP intends to change this by investing at least $5-10 million in five key areas:

1. Digital Power at the State Level: Working with state-based organizing groups to build digital infrastructure to shift local policy agendas and national narratives from the ground up.
2. Youth Movements: Funding youth organizations and digital-native young leaders to create new online spaces to inspire the next generation toward a more just, inclusive, sustainable future.
3. Identity and Cultural Organizing: Scaling the impact of Black-led digital organizing by investing in culture-first online strategies that combat disinformation and shape worldviews.
4. Digital Voter Engagement: Using creative digital engagement to reach voters where they are and turn election mobilization into catalytic moments that can transform culture.
5. Amplification Networks: Creating a bigger, louder, more unified “narrative ecosystem” to counter disinformation, amplify effective messages, shape the agenda, and shift public opinion.
