Communications Research Assistant Jobs

You Are:Someone who loves listening to all of the most popular podcasts and livestreams, and keeping up with current events that matter from a libertarian perspective.

We Are:Looking for more educational, current, and thought-provoking libertarian content! All day every day, prominent members of the liberty movement, potential coalition members, and other allies churn out excellent quotes and clips, but we need your help finding them.

What You’ll Do:

Keep the national Libertarian Party’s communications staff abreast of news items that should be of special interest to libertarians:

1. Provide a weekly overview of news that may be incorporated in messaging from the party, preferably including proposed talking points on that topic from a libertarian perspective.
2. Provide immediate alerts to communications staff when topics that would benefit from a swift response by the party hit the news.
3. Provide a minimum of five hard-hitting quotes every week that touch upon libertarian principles, transcribed word-for-word, from audio and video you have reviewed.
4. Deliver a “top five new liberty memes” to the comms team each week after roughly tracking which fresh libertarian memes (from any source) are the top performers.
5. Find clips (up to one minute long) from newly-released videos that contain dialogue illustrating libertarian perspectives on current events, educating people about libertarian philosophy, and motivating people to become liberty activists.

Qualifications/Skills:

Excellent writing skills, strong knowledge of libertarian principles, can be trained to pull clips from longer videos and accurately transcribe quotes from audio and video.
