We need more good information reaching people where they already are.
About Us
We need more good information reaching people where they already are. One in five Americans consume their news from online influencers, rising to one in four for Americans under 30. Content creators are experts in engaging and earning the trust of communities through relevant and relatable content. By investing in these information sharers through training, partnerships, and community building, we can make social platforms safer for all.
News Creators Corps is a movement to ensure everyone has access to accurate and trustworthy information. We invest in community messengers so they can better share facts, debunk misinformation, and empower their audiences with information.
Our Training Fellowship
Our pilot program will engage with creators who have established themselves as trusted leaders on one or more platforms, including, but not limited to, Instagram, TikTok, Twitch, Substack, or YouTube.
The 8-week program combines deep dives and discussions about content strategy, productivity tools, partnerships, and audience engagement with skill building on tactics typically held in newsrooms such as fact checking, legal document analysis, and interviewing, led by professionals who hold that expertise.
Future cohorts could expand to include high school and college students and traditional journalists in 2026 and beyond. Sign up for our mailing list using the form in the footer to get notified.
