Writer (Volunteer) Note: This is a remote, part-time volunteer position. Please do not apply if you are only seeking paid employment. Today, pretty much anyone can hang out their shingle as a “writer.” And millions have. However, being part of a smart, experienced team of journalists working together, sharing ideas, and making each other’s work as strong as possible — that’s a different thing entirely. If you’re an experienced writer/reporter with strong expertise in politics, policy, world events, history, cultural commentary, or other areas that align with what we do, we’d love to hear from you. For some writers, this is a chance to work on bigger topics than they might otherwise get to cover, collaborate with deeply experienced editors, and produce clips that can open doors. For others, it’s an opportunity to stay engaged, contribute meaningfully, and be part of a serious journalistic team rather than working in isolation. We’re an independent, nonprofit news organization with a limited budget, so we especially welcome those who are not looking to us principally as an income source. Our writers range from pro bono to modestly paid (particularly those covering wars and international developments), and this can be discussed. Our atmosphere is convivial, supportive, and stimulating. Writers here have the chance to sharpen their work with strong editorial input, stretch into ambitious subject areas, and be part of a team that shares ideas and strengthens one another’s work. It’s a great add-on to your life — whether you become an “inside writer” or contribute periodically as a freelance collaborator.
