The Media Industry is in CRISIS
Don't Put Your Future In Someone Else's Hands
From television to print and digital, no platform is immune from the widespread cuts. In 2023 media companies slashed more than 20,000 jobs including nearly 2,700 in the news industry. This as advertising dollars continue to shrink and executives scramble to reinvent the failing business model. CNN, The Evening Standard, Vice, Buzzfeed, Allen Media Group, and Paramount are among the outlets implementing the deepest cuts in 2024.
Meantime, the journalists and storytellers who are spared are enduring stagnant wages despite having an increasing workload. According to a 2023 UNC poll 70% of journalists have experienced work-related burnout.

What our community members are saying...
The Rewrite isn't just the tools, it's the toolbox! Considering or making a transition from a career that most of us dreamed about or never imagined doing anything else is tough and overwhelming. The Rewrite offers reassurance and acknowledgement of the emotional toll this process can take but then also aims to empower you with information and actionable items to reframe your thinking and capitalize on the skills and assets we already possess."
"I truly enjoy the webinars. The emails are amazing, especially with the available positions for writers."
"The Rewrite is a program that takes a holistic approach to helping journalists figure out their now and next. From mental health resources to identifying transferable skills and how to market yourself for future roles - there's information and tangible guidance for every step of the journey of career transition - no matter where you are in the journey. The Rewrite is like having a counselor, career coach and cheerleader all rolled into one."
"The Transferable Skills Guide is helpful. Sometimes trying to explain what you do to people outside of media is difficult. The guide breaks down the profession"
