The Revealer: a review of religion and media is an online magazine published by the Center for Religion and Media at New York University. The Revealer was conceived by Jay Rosen. Jeff Sharlet and Kathryn Joyce then created the site. Kali Handelman is the website's current editor.
The Revealer publishes work by writers who are able to take a step back and write thoughtfully and critically about what we talk about when we talk about religion. The Revealer publishes writing that reflects upon religion as a key point of intersection between beliefs, practices, politics, representation, economics, identity, where the important forces that shape individuals, societies, and their relationship to each other play out. For writers, this can mean pointing a wider lens at the way others in the media cover an issue, or reviewing a book, or doing on-the-ground reporting on a situation. They publish work in many forms, be it blog posts, long form reporting, arts and culture reviews, first person narratives, or photography.
