Feature Writing

Dream Publication

My dream publication to write for would be Mother Jones. I learned about them through their writer, Shane Bauer, doing an interview for his undercover reporting from a private prison. They do investigating reporting sometimes undercover and for long periods of time. Bauer went undercover as a corrections officer for four months in a private prison. He witnessed extreme violence and neglect during this time in order to tell the story of an otherwise cut off population. Their audience has to be a very intentional demographic of people. The magazine has a diverse range of topics but I’m not sure how many people read them.
