About Katie Couric Media
KCM creates content that sparks curiosity, elevates conversation, inspires action, and moves the world forward
Our Story
KCM was founded in 2017 by award-winning journalist Katie Couric and her husband, John Molner, formerly a general partner at a New York-based investment firm.
Together, they identified a white space in the media landscape and set out to help brands amplify their values and cultivate an engaged and diverse audience through authentic storytelling.
Stories can help us understand not only important issues, but each other. There’s a huge chasm today that too often prevents people from getting to the heart of the challenges we face. I want to understand the world we live in better and tell those stories.
Katie Couric,
Co-Founder of KCM
Today, KCM collaborates with brands to create elevated, educational, and engaging content that drives action. Its core mission is to help brands develop powerful narratives, connect authentically with consumers, and derive impact for their marketing and communication goals. KCM unpacks complicated subjects through approachable storytelling that enlightens and inspires. These narratives are showcased across KCM’s wide-ranging platforms, including a suite of newsletters, award-winning Next Question podcast, editorial content, affiliate marketing, short and long-form video series and social content.
