Sep 30, 2024 - GAMURS Group is hiring a remote Freelance New & Politics Writers. 💸 Salary: $15 to $38 per article. 📍Location: USA.
The Mary Sue is searching for freelance writers to bolster our political coverage! We're looking for journalists/bloggers who get our intersectional feminist perspective and have significant knowledge of, and passion for, progressive politics, as well as an interest in pop-culture. You should especially be plugged into the 24/7 news cycle. Do you have fifteen notifications pop onto your phone from a variety of sources whenever a story breaks? We want to hear from you.
So, what are the job expectations? Your primary focus will be covering breaking news in the political sphere. Although writers will have the freedom to dip into more pop-culture-related coverage on occasion this role specifically focuses on news and politics through a feminist lens. Top candidates will know how to put an emphasis on quickly and informatively keeping our readers up to date on what's going on in the world around them, whether it's an important House vote, a Supreme Court decision, or the slow collapse of a social media network.
You'll work with our senior news editor to cover news topics on a day-to-day basis, as well as pitch your own story ideas. (Hours are extremely flexible but in order to coordinate with the news team and cover breaking stories, writers should have availability within a 9a–6p U.S. Eastern weekday schedule.) We particularly want to hear from candidates who are comfortable with breaking news (especially stories relating to the LGBTQ+ community, race, and representation), writing incisive takes, working independently, and who have an instinctive barometer for what's newsworthy. The ideal candidate will be able to find the aspects of any story that everyone will be (or should be!) discussing in the daily news cycle and drive the conversation forward with their unique analysis.
What are we looking for in a prospective freelance news writer?
What do we want in addition to your resume?
Pay rate: Ranges from $15 to $38 USD depending on the length and type of story. Past applicants with relevant experience are encouraged to reapply.
