About the Organization
MediaPedia is a nonprofit dedicated to exposing media bias and empowering Americans to seek truth without gatekeepers. Launched in January 2025, MediaPedia is building the largest, most transparent database of media outlets, journalists, and editorial influencers in the country—functioning like an IMDb for the news industry.
MediaPedia was created in response to the growing dominance of ideologically driven media watchdogs like NewsGuard and Ad Fontes, whose influence shapes which voices are amplified—and which are silenced. Through its proprietary MediaPedia Rating System (MRS), the organization provides the tools Americans need to assess the objectivity and transparency of the news they consume.
As a project of American Independent Media, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, MediaPedia is backed by a commitment to advancing viewpoint diversity, civil discourse, and the foundational values of a free society.
We are now seeking an entrepreneurial and mission-driven social media manager to lead MediaPedia’s digital efforts through its growth stage by scaling public awareness campaigns and developing compelling, impactful social media activity.
Position Summary
MediaPedia is seeking a fast-moving, results-driven Social Media Marketer to support the organization’s growing public presence and campaign efforts.

The Social Media Marketer will be responsible for executing MediaPedia’s day-to-day social media strategy, supporting issue-based and awareness campaigns, amplifying research and media appearances, and helping grow an engaged and influential audience.
