About our company

Raw Story Media is based in Washington, DC. Our revenue comes from advertising served by third-party providers, first-party ad sales, donations and subscriptions to our ad-free site. Please email sales@rawstory.com for information on advertising with us.

Our mission

The Raw Story is an alternative news nexus. We draw upon a panoply of news sources and select those stories we think most intriguing to a audience seeking news underplayed by the mainstream media.

At the core, our goal is to unearth and spotlight stories underplayed by the popular press, in particular those which highlight betterment and open people’s eyes to injustice throughout the world.

About the site

The Raw Story, founded in February, 2004 has grown at a remarkable pace, and is referenced regularly by major bloggers and the press. Raw Story's reporting has been referenced by the New York Times, the Guardian, L.A. Weekly, the New York Post, the Toronto Star, The Hill, Roll Call, the Salt Lake City Tribune and The Advocate. We now average 490,000 unique visitors daily, and run as high as 850,000 on strong-traffic days.

The site is updated continuously throughout the day and links to stories of national and international import; business and economic news; arts and entertainment reporting; and selected editorials. It also features exclusive stories and commentaries from reporters around the globe -- including a dedicated news feed from Agence France-Presse.

We also seek to promote budding journalists and provide alternative content of our own.

Submission guidelines

The Raw Story accepts solicited as well as unsolicited material; it can be sent at any time as a Word or RTF attachment to tips@rawstory.com.

Please be aware that all submissions become the property of The Raw Story, and we do require that writers allow a one-week exclusivity period before posting their work elsewhere. If posted online, you must add this tag: "Originally published by The Raw Story, http://www.rawstory.com."

Individual written agreements may be reached with the editors to offer leeway in these policies under extenuating circumstances.

Pieces should be no longer than 1,000 words, and adhere to AP style guidelines. To get a sense of this style, feel free to look through previous exclusives.

Join our team!

The Raw Story was founded in January 2004 to provide an online alternative for news, politics, and arts, providing a nexus of links to stories of the day as well as our own reporting. We aim to be relevant to a young-minded audience, and plan, as the site grows, to add greater interactivity.

We're looking for writers and editors to join our team. In particular, we're looking for:

  • Correspondents: We're especially looking for reporters from large metropolitan areas and foreign countries.
  • Story sleuths: News junkies with an eye for a good story, who can send dispatches of interesting articles.
  • Columnists: Of all opinions and persuasions.

Please send a resume and up to three clips of your work to tips@rawstory.com.
