Unisex with a relaxed cut, true to size, S to 4XL. Garment-dyed heavyweight tee.

Reporting is not treason. The document was paid for by the public, the reporter published what it said, and the word that came back from the podium was treason, which has a legal definition that publishing a story has never met. This shirt is for the reporter who ran it, and for the editor who signed off.

Wear it to the newsroom, the press freedom rally, the journalism school lecture, and the family dinner where a relative repeats the word from the podium. It is a strong gift for a reporter, an editor, a journalism student, and the source who trusted them.

The tee is a Comfort Colors 1717, garment-dyed in 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft and evenly colored, with a heavier hand than a novelty tee and a message that outlasts the news cycle. Direct-to-garment. It bonds with the cotton.

Unisex and relaxed, true to size. S through 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. And Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. Also as a hoodie and a sweatshirt. It belongs with the newsroom designs on our press freedom collection.

Designed and printed to order in the USA. Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron the design.

Would a newsroom order these? Newsrooms do, quietly. Every shirt is printed to order. Any mix of sizes, one order.

Which color for a press freedom rally? White reads from the street. Black and Graphite for the newsroom.

How does it fit? Relaxed body, true to size. Order your usual.

Wear it to: the march, the vigil, the courthouse steps, the town hall.

Printing and care

Printed to order in the USA, direct to garment: water-based ink goes into the fabric rather than sitting on top, so the print stays soft and does not crack or peel.

Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print. More on the fabric and care page.
