History
Inspiration for the name, "Common Dreams", came from the book title, The Twilight of Common Dreams: Why America Is Wracked by Culture Wars, written by Todd Gitlin and published in 1995.
The nonprofit organization, Common Dreams, was founded in 1996 by political consultant Craig Brown, and the News Center was launched the following year, in May 1997, by Brown and his wife, Lina Newhouser (1951–2008). Brown, a native of Massachusetts, has a long history in progressive politics. He was the director of the Maine Public Interest Research Group from 1973 to 1977 and worked on the presidential campaigns of U.S. Senator Alan Cranston and U.S. Senator Paul Simon. Brown also served from 1990 to 1994 as chief of staff for Tom Andrews.[1] Part of Brown's job was to compile news for Representative Andrews, which gave Brown the impetus to do the same on the internet.[2]
During the Kosovo War, Common Dreams hosted the "Drumbeats of War" site which, according to the BBC, presented "a round-up of interesting articles with wide-ranging points of view that have previously appeared in newspapers and journals across the United States."[3] Common Dreams is also known for its strong anti-war stance.[4][5]
Common Dreams is funded through subscriptions and donations from its readers and does not have advertising. Шаблон:Citation needed
