Truthdig seeks a passionate and experienced editor who understands journalism as an art, a craft and a spark for positive and systemic social change.
Truthdig is a progressive online journal of news and opinion that provides insightful and accurate reporting on current issues of the day. We offer a solid and reliable resource for those who want to explore important topics in more depth, and from different perspectives. In addition, it is our mission to create a home for contributors and editors that want to provide thoughtful, creative, provocative and proactive ideas that may lead to positive changes to current injustices. We are thought leaders, not followers. We love introducing our readers to the stories that matter and people who aren’t being talked about yet.

While we are a vibrant work environment that prizes innovation and free thinking, we also highly prize integrity and quality journalism.
