Study Hall is looking for guest Digest writers to contribute to our weekly newsletter. 

We publish stories about media work and journalism, specifically ones that center workers, rather than treating them as an afterthought. The Digest focuses on major news stories in the media world and should feel something like reading the opening few pages of a magazine — fun, informative, quick-reading, and of-the-moment without being too overtly news-y.

We're interested in coverage of media gossip, disability rights, developments in LGBTQ+ media, BIPOC perspectives on the media industry, developments in AI, and tech's role in the changing media industry. 

The ideal newsletter will be anchored by a timely lede essay, nothing robust enough to be a report — think in the 500- to 1000-word range — and is followed by an assortment of four to six rubrics of varying lengths and formats that staffers also contribute to. 

Subsections might include a link roundup and bulletin of career comings & goings, a brief Q&A, a Twitter-specific slug, a personal slug, and others. We're open to trying out different verticals! 

Compensation is $750 per Digest.
