The reporter is critical to our organizational success and is charged with covering news for the area's leading news website. This is a fast-paced beat in a dynamic, engaged community.

 

The right candidate understands the importance of breaking news quickly and accurately, is versatile, and can add depth and a human perspective to news stories. Candidates should also be able to balance day-to-day news coverage with longer-term enterprise projects.
