First Draft Media founders have a proven track record and network in publishing, media development and media support. By taking on the role of publisher for new titles, First Draft media enables these journalists and editors to focus on the journalism, leaving the business to First Draft Media. First Draft Media launches titles irrespective of geography, type of media (daily, weekly, etc.) and channel (online, print, etc.) Potential titles are judged on a set of very specific criteria: (1) in their pursuit of the truth and in a desire to "draft history", and (2) in their ability to add a voice, perspective or journalistic niche—one that would otherwise be absent—to any mediascape. Together with its journalist-partners, First Draft Media aims to strengthen access to diverse, reliable information for people. New titles can either be bootstrapped or acquired.
