Job Description
TalkingPointsMemo.com, the respected pioneer of online political news currently celebrating its 25th year of publishing, is expanding its reporting team. TPM is looking to fill immediately a new position for a political reporter who will help to confront the current political moment more robustly.
The preferred candidate will be a political reporter with significant experience who is skilled at their craft; who understands the political moment, the underlying power dynamics, and the lurch away from democracy; and who can expertly navigate the strong currents coursing through American politics.
The ideal candidate will be able to hit the ground running and immediately contribute to TPM’s highest-value coverage areas: the Trump II presidency, the erosion of democracy, the historic ascension of a reactionary right-wing.
This is a DC or NYC position, with a slight preference for DC. The salary range is $85,000-$110,000 annually. Benefits include health, dental and vision insurance, 401(k), and three weeks paid vacation per year. This is a position covered under the Writers Guild of America East Collective Bargaining Agreement.
Women and minority candidates are strongly encouraged to apply. Please send resume and cover letter to jobs@talkingpointsmemo.com (include the subject line: “Job App: Political Reporter”).
