  • Produce engaging, creative live shots and vertical videos that add value and context.
  • Write for broadcast with strong conversational storytelling and compelling teases.
  • Publish stories, video, and updates to WGAL.com and social media platforms throughout the day.
  • Coordinate with news managers and producers to develop stories that go beyond surface details and provide context, accountability, and exclusive reporting.
  • Balance multiple assignments while consistently meeting deadlines.
  • Occasionally operate MMJ camera equipment and edit using Adobe Premiere.
  • Maintain the highest standards of journalistic ethics, fairness, and accuracy.

Required Skills

  • Calm under pressure with excellent organizational and time-management skills.

Education
