In a media landscape where LGBTQ coverage has been shrinking for years, Uncloseted Media is doing the opposite, digging deeper, harder, truer.

Launched in 2024 by journalist and NYU professor Spencer Macnaughton, Uncloseted Media was founded on the belief that once marriage equality was won, much of the mainstream press quietly decided the story was over. It wasn’t, it isn’t, and Uncloseted Media was launched to prove that.

Uncloseted Media describes its mission plainly: providing objective, nonpartisan, rigorous, original journalism that investigates America’s anti-LGBTQ landscape and elevates everyday American heroes.  No hot takes, no noise, just journalism.
