Description:

The Arkansas Times is a feisty, busy monthly magazine and website in Little Rock. We aim to cover culture, politics, education and government in this deep-red state through a progressive lens.

Open Position

Location: Little Rock, Arkansas

Beat: agriculture and environment reporter

Position:

Arkansas is known as The Natural State for good reason; natural resources drive the state's economy and shape its identity. The state is changing, with a lithium boom in the south, wind and solar farms in the north and east, and fallow fields in the Delta, where more farmers are falling into the red and calling it quits. Mysterious data centers are setting up in multiple towns, boosting our electric bills and worrying neighbors. The agriculture and environment reporter delves into these and other topics affecting the health, wealth and landscape of Arkansas.
