Launched in 2011 and laser-focused on television alone, TVLine cuts through the noise of general entertainment and celeb gossip to deliver exactly what superfans want: a concentrated stream of breaking TV news, original previews, spoilers, casting scoops, and insightful recaps/reviews.
If you thrive in a fast-moving news cycle, love staying on top of the latest TV developments, and enjoy digging into both current hits and classic series, this is the place for you. Our writers deliver timely, accurate, and engaging coverage that speaks directly to dedicated TV fans, and we’re looking for more talented freelancers to join our team.
Two Ways to Contribute
We’re hiring for two freelance paths. You’re welcome to choose the opportunity that best matches your experience and availability, or indicate interest in both when you apply.
News Writer ($21–$25/hr): Cover short-form news and evergreen content (300–900 words). Writers work a consistent schedule of their choosing (10–40 hours/week). Compensation within this range is based on experience and qualifications, with $21 per hour as the starting rate.
Feature Writer ($0.08-$0.10/word): Focus on deep-dive, long-form features (2,600+ words). There is no set schedule, but we ask for a minimum of one feature per week. Compensation within this range is based on experience and qualifications, with 8 cents per word as the starting rate.
