EDITORIAL WEB INTERN, TNR ONLINE
The New Republic Online is looking for college students and recent graduates for its 2008 Web internship program. Internships are unpaid but offer substantial experience in the production of a daily online publication. Responsibilities include:
* Fact-checking and research projects
* Preparation of our daily and weekly e-mail newsletters
* Helping to maintain TNR's blogs and other aspects of the site
In addition, Web interns have an open invitation to pitch magazine or Web articles. Political journalism experience is preferred (but not imperative); some familiarity with HTML is important; and fluency in search techniques like LexisNexis is mandatory.
We have three intern sessions per year: Fall (September through December); spring (January through May); and summer (June through August). A full-time commitment is preferred. Applications for our summer internship are currently being accepted on a rolling basis. Please e-mail a cover letter and résumé to Ben Wasserstein at job@tnr.com
No phone calls and no snail mail please.
