Questions

Obviously, the guys with skills are at WIRED / TechCrunch / etc..., but there must be some solid talent out there that isn't locked away full-time at a big media house. What's a good way to find and potentially hire these guys part time?

Seek out "contributors," "guest writers," or "freelancers" who write for the publications you've identified as relevant. These writers are often freelancers with a little extra time to write. Your offer must be compelling, though, because writers tend to enjoy writing for large publications, not startup blogs. That is, unless the topic is a huge interest of theirs in the first place and the pay is good.

If you have a budget, you could also consider checking out Contently, a network for highly talented freelance writers. They serve large brands for the most part, though, and are often over-priced for startups.
