  • Contribute to editorial decision-making, including graphics and visual elements, particularly during breaking news
  • Research stories using the internet, video archives, and newsroom resources
  • Help showcase big stories in a clear, compelling, and visually engaging way
  • Edit video and assist in producing new or expanded newscasts
  • Post stories and segments to digital platforms as assigned
  • Serve as a fill-in Producer when needed
  • Always maintain ethical journalism practices and newsroom content standards

Requirements:
  • Minimum of three (3) years of newsroom experience in a television news environment
  • Bachelor's degree in Journalism, Communications, TV/Film, or equivalent experience
  • Strong writing skills with excellent grammar, attention to detail, and sound news judgment
  • Ability to work under deadline pressure and manage multiple tasks simultaneously
  • Strong understanding of visual, written, and verbal storytelling
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with producers, reporters, anchors, photographers, digital, production, and engineering teams
  • Strong sense of journalistic integrity and understanding of audience needs and expectations
  • Knowledge of brand-building directives and newsroom standards
  • A team-first mindset with a willingness to learn, adapt, and support the newsroom
  • Flexibility to work weekends and varied shifts as newsroom demands require
