**MEMBERS ONLY**SIGN UP NOW***.: Senior TV Writer
**MEMBERS ONLY**SIGN UP NOW***. is hiring an experienced TV entertainment journalist reporting to the Executive Editor TV. Whether you’re producing criticism and analysis, fun and in-depth features, or a quick-and-quippy piece, you know the value of digging deeply to find a line of questioning, a unique angle, or a source of insight that others didn’t think of first. This role may be based in our New York or Los Angeles offices.
You’ll publish at least three thought-provoking original stories every week, on deadline and with clean copy that’s ready for editing. This can include anything from quick-hit show analysis, Q&As, reviews, essays to trend pieces, long-lead reporting and awards coverage. Interest in the intersection of race, identity, and representation on TV is a major plus.
Release calendars are a useful tool in your coverage, but with your enterprising spirit you’re more likely to rely on your own sources and culture tracking to stay ahead of breaking news and trends. You know how to break and advance stories, whether at a cocktail party or at your computer, and you’re comfortable with juggling short- and long-lead assignments.
