WCBI-TV has an immediate opening for a full-time Reporter/Multimedia Journalist.
We want someone ready to learn how to tell a story and learn why journalism matters to our

We want someone who can tell a story by writing to their video and using sound to enhance the
quality of their story-telling ability.
