About Broadband Breakfast and Breakfast Media

Breakfast Media LLC (d/b/a/ Broadband Breakfast) is a unique media company. We began as a voice in the wilderness advocating for higher-capacity internet everywhere. Our rallying cry is “Better Broadband, Better Lives.” As the coronavirus pandemic makes painfully clear, Better Broadband is vital: We need it now more than ever.

Broadband Breakfast is also an inclusive media community. We don’t take sides on controversies around fiber or wireless, net neutrality or open internet orders, privacy rules or changes to Section 230. We bring people together through the Broadband Breakfast Club and online. Our news coverage and our events are topical, timely and smart.

A 12-year old media company based in Washington that is building a community of interest around broadband policy and internet technology, we are looking for individuals seeking a front-row seat overseeing the politics of technology in the nation’s capital.

If you’d like to be part of a dynamic group of individuals fleshing out the nation’s understanding of broadband policy and internet technology writing articles, assembling research and conducting outreach, please contact Editor and Publisher Drew Clark via email, drew@breakfast.media
