This is a rare opportunity to join Salon in a newly created position that will not only lead but also reimagine opinion coverage for our audience of more than 10 million monthly unique visitors. Be excited to flex your creativity, as well as shape the editorial future of the brand.
In this role, you will be the editor of our national affairs, politics and other newsy commentary, overseeing coverage that takes a critical look at current events and trends, both how we got here as a society and where we’re going next. As a leader for the expression of perspectives, big and small, you will set the editorial vision for the exchange of ideas on-site and across our multi-platform channels.
The ideal candidate is a seasoned journalist who has experience editing senior writers with distinct voices and a point of view.

A roster of freelance writers with experience in commentary writing is also a plus.
