The public safety and breaking news reporter will seek out stories of interest to our audiences using the latest metrics and social tools to find stories that will resonate, focusing on the most talked about issues – or those most deserving attention –within the justice system. This person should be creative, write in a conversational style and deliver sharp headlines.

Ideal candidates will be open to reporting on a variety of topics and have an insatiable curiosity about how the criminal justice system works from the moment someone is arrested to the moment of conviction or acquittal. We want someone who can work calmly under tight deadlines, deliver scoops, write quickly, make a lot of phone calls, knock on doors, be creative, think about storytelling on different platforms, deliver sharp headlines and willingly embrace learning new skills.
