Crooked believes that we need a better conversation about politics, culture, and the world around us—one that doesn’t just focus on what’s broken, but what we can do to fix it. We are a media network that showcases stories, voices, and opportunities for activism that inform, entertain, and inspire action, because it’s up to all of us to do our part to build a better world.
Job Summary:
Crooked Media is looking for a dynamic, endlessly curious, and innovative producer for our daily news podcast, What A Day. Our close-knit team works hard to keep our news-hungry listeners from falling into the doom-scrolling abyss by giving them everything they need to know to start their day.
So if you can break down the latest catfight in Congress without breaking a sweat, or even find the humor in the fight over the debt ceiling – we want to hear from you!
Candidates must be able to work Sundays through Thursdays from 1 PM to approximately 10 PM Pacific time, and willing to adjust working hours in the event of breaking news or as other circumstances dictate.
Crooked has adopted a hybrid work model for our entire staff. We believe that the best work is done in a hybrid capacity as it combines the flexibility of working from home with in-person collaboration. We are ideally looking for Los Angeles-based candidates, or candidates willing to relocate within the first 3 months of accepting an offer.
