How to become a TV writer?

To become a TV writer, you typically need a background in screenwriting, such as a bachelor’s degree in film production or creative writing or a master’s degree in fine arts in screenwriting. Education or training is not always necessary to become a writer, and if you have a strong script that an agent or producer is interested in, you may not need formal qualifications. To work in news, you should have a background in journalism and excellent research and writing skills.
