- Build strong relationships with viewers and community partners
- Work closely with Producers, Editors, Anchors, & News Directors to elevate your reporting
What You Bring
- A passion for helping people and uncovering meaningful solutions
- Strong investigative instincts and the ability to follow a trail until it leads somewhere
- Experience working with newsroom systems and media production tools
- Excellent writing, research, and storytelling skills
- 5 years of experience in reporting (consumer or investigative experience a plus)
- The ability to stay organized, calm, and focused when deadlines are tight
- A commitment to accuracy, fairness, and ethical journalism
Who Thrives in This Role
- Curious minds who ask "Why?"
- Journalists who enjoy sorting out confusion and making things clear
- Reporters who believe journalism is a public service
