The TMN offers visiting fellowships allowing individual European journalists to spend up to three months in the United States. Fellows usually spend one month at the CSIS in Washington, and are then based at schools of journalism in other areas of the United States, with extensive opportunities to travel and meet a wide range of Americans. The aim is not to enable journalists to engage in daily news coverage, but rather to help them gain insights into the diverse attitudes of Americans and the ways these attitudes influence the formation of American social and political viewpoints.
Fellows operate with complete editorial independence and are entirely free to draw their own conclusions about America and Americans on the basis of their travels and experiences. Alumni of the program join the expanding TMN network of journalists with an interest in U.S., European and transatlantic issues. The program covers all costs of the fellowships, which are usually awarded to journalists with little previous direct experience of the United States.
