Do you love streaming video services like Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, and HBO Max? The Streamable (thestreamable.com (http://thestreamable.com)) is seeking freelance writers who are passionate about cord-cutting and streaming service news.
You’ll write about channels coming and going from YouTube TV and fuboTV. You’ll write about new features added to HBO Max and Sling TV. And when the next streaming service does the CNN+ swan dive, you’ll try to explain what went wrong. We help cord-cutters enjoy maximum entertainment at the price that’s right for them, and you can join the team.
ABOUT THE COMPANY

- We pay $20/hour, with a minimum of $20 per article and a bonus if you pitch the story to us.
- If you write more than 20 articles per month for us, we will pay for up to $25 of your streaming services. Yes, that means you can get Netflix, Disney+, and/or HBO Max on us.
