JournalismJobs.com - Job Listing - Queer Texas Culture & Newsletter Writer JournalismJobs.com has journalism and media job listings with digital media, newspapers, tv stations, radio stations, magazines, nonprofits, and academia.

A vast majority of Texas outlets’ coverage of queer life in the focuses on our disenfranchisement, but queer people in Texas aren’t always victims of a tragedy. Often we’re the hero, the performer, the jokester, the observer. We want to tell those stories too.

Bari Weiss Doesn’t Want You to Read This Bari Weiss’s reported hiring at CBS News is the latest example of corporate media capitulating to Trump.

We are so screwed if people keep relying on mainstream outlets to protect democracy. @davidchasecohen.bsky.social and I make a case here for why we need independent media and people with resources need to step up and fund it thebarbedwire.com/2025/10/03/b...

If a federal judge, appointed by Trump, can call him “simply untethered to facts,” our White House press corps can as well.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

Rid me of this meddlesome priest, Pam! How mob boss Trump sped through all of Watergate in just a single weekend.

The Non-Education of Ross Douthat The New York Times columnist insists on defending a version of the Republican party that doesn't exist.

Wrote an article about Douthat a few years ago about how he steadfastly refuses to learn from events—because he wants a sort of American Orbanism but usually tries to obscure that—and since that’s apparently still the case, no need to write another.
