Megaphone provides low-barrier work opportunities through magazine writing, reporting, and vending. Each vendor buys the paper for 75 cents and sells it for $2 (plus tips). Megaphone is an autonomous way for those facing barriers to traditional employment to make an income. Last year, Megaphone launched an initiative called The Shift, dedicated to making the newsroom more inclusive by training aspiring journalists from the communities they serve.
