Candidates seeking to join NewsGuard’s team must be committed to treating every site fairly, basing its rating on NewsGuard’s nine journalistic criteria and rating system and nothing else.
  • Leave politics at the door. At NewsGuard, we seek to keep politics out of the equation and assess each site based on its journalistic practices. This means avoiding both real and perceived bias and signing a strict ethics and conflict of interests policy.
  • Adapt and learn. NewsGuard is a startup and a frontrunner in the creation of a new industry. NewsGuard team members should be adaptable, ready for change, and eager to contribute new ideas.
