Sirs-

I'd like to be considered for the open position of researcher at Media Matters. I'm a freelance writer and political activist, and my work has appeared in dozens of publications including Vanity Fair, Skeptic, National Lampoon, McSweeney's, The Onion A.V. Club, and several lesser-known public policy journals such as Toward Freedom. My first book, Flock of Dodos: Behind Modern Creationism, Intelligent Design, and the Easter Bunny was released in 2007 to praise from Alan Dershowitz, Cenk Uygur, Matt Taibbi, Bob Cesca, and other sources. I also serve as director of communications for GAMPAC on a pro bono (and very much part-time) basis, having appeared on outlets like Fox News on the organization's behalf.

I'm seeking a salary of at least $30,000.

I've attached a resume; please let me know if you'd like to arrange for an interview.

Thanks,

Barrett Brown
