The USAID revelation revealed how they were funded. Along with thousands of other news organizations domestically and globally.

You're still not making sense. Who is "they" here, USAID? What does your second sentence even mean? How "news organizations [are funded]"? I'm seriously unclear what you are trying to say.

USAID had thousands of premium subscriptions to newspapers and magazines. One such was for 8000 monthly subscriptions. I don't remember the publication with 8000 but the NYT also got money from USAID.

Not sure if that's what we're talking about here. For the record I am against that practice.
