Straight Arrow News Expands Reporting Team to Enhance Insights on American Life
In a significant move towards enhancing journalistic integrity and depth, Straight Arrow News, an independent publisher committed to unbiased journalism, has announced the hiring of four new reporters. This expansion aims to amplify its reporting on critical aspects shaping American life, including the political landscape, cost of living, and the nuances of media bias and digital influence.
The newly appointed reporters—Mark Keierleber, Azi Paybarah, Lauren Pearle, and Rosie Thomas—bring a wealth of experience and distinct expertise, promising to enrich the narrative beyond the headlines that often dominate the news cycle.
Mark joins as the reporter focusing on media, bias, and algorithms. He previously excelled at The 74 as an investigative journalist covering educational accountability.

Known for executing impactful investigative work through tools such as FOIA requests and data analysis, Keierleber has had his stories featured in reputable outlets such as WIRED and The Atlantic. His insights into how algorithms shape narratives will be invaluable as readers seek to understand media's role in society today.
Taking on the role of senior politics reporter, Azi Paybarah is set to delve into the intricate processes of how political stories are constructed, framed, and disseminated. Paybarah began his journey in journalism at the Queens Tribune and has since contributed to the Washington Post. His crowning achievement includes being part of the Pulitzer Prize-winning team at the New York Times for coverage during the coronavirus pandemic. As a co-founder of the FAQ NYC podcast, he brings a modern approach to political storytelling, making him a great fit for Straight Arrow’s commitment to in-depth contextual journalism.
Joining the team as a senior reporter dedicated to issues of affordability, Lauren Pearle brings with her fifteen years of rich experience from ABC News, where she was instrumental in high-impact reporting for various major platforms.

Lastly, Rosie Thomas, known for her incisive reporting on technology and digital behavior, joins as the digital influence reporter. Previously with 404 Media, Thomas gained recognition for her investigation into GPS tracking devices marketed as relationship surveillance tools available on TikTok. She adeptly addresses topics that blend technology's impact on privacy, algorithms, and public perception. Her investigative approaches will help audiences understand the implications of rapidly evolving digital landscapes, placing Straight Arrow at the forefront of modern journalism.
As part of a broader strategy to foster transparency and critical thinking about news consumption, Straight Arrow News emphasizes the importance of reporting that not only informs but also educates its readers.
