Bio

Josh Kalven has over six years experience in online political media, first as a deputy editorial director at Media Matters for America and then as editor-in-chief of Progress Illinois. In 2009, after struggling to cover a labor dispute in his hometown of Chicago, he became more and more interested in explanatory journalism. In May 2010, he attended the Knight Digital Media Center’s News Entrepreneur Boot Camp at the University of Southern California. Around that time, he began developing my plan for a media company that would specialize in containing and explaining complex news narratives.

In January 2011, he founded Newsbound, Inc. Kalven currently spends his days developing content, recruiting initial team members, and seeking angel investment.
