Freelance Pitch Form

About this opportunity

ProPublica, the nonprofit investigative newsroom, considers ambitious accountability investigations from freelance journalists. It wants pitches that show clear harm, who is responsible and what should change, backed by reporting you've already done, and an outline of what the investigation would need. It aims to reply within two weeks. Accepted pitches are paid at what it calls competitive freelance rates, with reporting expenses covered; no figures are given.
