Description:

An outstanding journalism tradition. An award-winning team. The opportunity to grow.

The Graphic Printing Company offers all of those qualities as we look for an energetic, motivated, passionate journalist to join our reporting team.

We are looking for a journalist as we expand our staff that covers three counties and parts of several others for four newspapers — The Commercial Review (Portland), The News-Gazette (Winchester), The News Times (Hartford City) and The News and Sun (Dunkirk) — in east central Indiana.

The reporter we hire will work as part of our team that publishes four newspapers in three counties in east central Indiana. You will get experience in a wide variety of reporting, including local government, breaking news, cops/courts, education and features.

We are looking for someone who has shown a passion for journalism through their efforts with professional work, internships or their college newspaper. Recent college graduates are encouraged to apply. This is an excellent opportunity for young journalists to learn and grow. Former staffers have moved on to jobs with the Associated Press, Indianapolis Business Journal, South Bend Tribune and St. Louis Business Journal, among others.

Our company has a long tradition of journalism excellence with our flagship daily paper, The Commercial Review (Portland), consistently performing as one of the top daily newspapers in its division for general excellence in the Hoosier State Press Association contest. (We have also just learned that in our first year of ownership, both The News-Gazette and The News Times will be receiving multiple Hoosier State Press Association awards for the first time in years.)

Send resume and three examples of your work to president, editor and publisher Ray Cooney at r.cooney@thecr.com. The deadline to apply is June 18.
