The Lever is a reader-supported investigative news outlet dedicated to following the money and holding the powerful accountable. Founded in 2020 by journalist David Sirota and a team of reporters, The Lever has quickly attracted a robust following thanks to its in-depth investigations and uncompromising analyses of matters related to local and national politics, business corruption, the labor movement, climate change, health care, and more. With its fast-growing subscribership, The Lever is building a news organization devoted to holding power accountable.

The fellow will receive hands-on support from our editorial team, is welcome to attend our daily editorial meetings, and will be encouraged to pitch and write additional stories for The Lever, for which they will be paid our standard freelance rate of $400/story and up.
