You’ll be joining a newsroom committed to our brand pillars — Inform, Inspire, and Impact — through accountability reporting, solution-oriented storytelling, and community connection.

- Leverage social media and digital tools to research, verify, and distribute content.
- Build and maintain strong sources that advance our coverage.
- Pitch daily story ideas and collaborate with producers and the assignment desk.
- Write in an engaging, conversational, and authentic voice that connects with viewers.
- Uphold WUSA9’s commitment to accuracy, fairness, and journalistic integrity.
- Other duties as assigned.
Requirements:
- Bachelor’s degree in journalism, communications, or related field.
- Minimum 5 years of on-air reporting experience in a medium-to-large market (7 years preferred).
- Proven track record of breaking news coverage and original enterprise reporting.
- Proficiency in shooting, lighting, and non-linear editing (EDIUS preferred).
- Strong writing, storytelling, and tease-writing abilities.
- Solid news judgment, strong communication, and ethical decision-making skills.
- Familiarity with newsroom systems such as ENPS, Axis Graphics, and digital content tools.
- Must be organized, adaptable, and able to perform under deadline pressure.
- Comfortable working in fast-moving live environments.
- Demonstrated success creating engaging content for broadcast, social, and digital audiences.
- Familiarity with or connection to the Washington, D.C. region is a plus.
