Help Lead Wyoming Journalism Forward

News Editor – Torrington Telegram (Torrington, WY)

In August, the lights nearly went out on community journalism in Wyoming. Thanks to a new locally owned partnership, the Torrington Telegram is alive again – and we’re building for the future.

We are seeking a news editor to lead our newsroom in Torrington. This is a hands-on role: writing stories, shooting photographs, mentoring a small but dedicated staff, and shaping the coverage that keeps Goshen County informed and connected.

What You’ll Do:

  • Report on schools, government, courts, businesses, and community life
  • Shoot photos that capture the spirit of Goshen County
  • Edit and mentor a small, committed newsroom staff
  • Work closely with publishers who are invested in Wyoming’s future
  • Uphold the values of local, independent journalism

Who You Are:

  • A strong writer and storyteller with a nose for news
  • Comfortable juggling reporting, editing, and photography
  • A leader who thrives in a collaborative, small-team environment
  • Passionate about local journalism and the role it plays in civic life

What We Offer:

  • The chance to be part of a fresh start for Wyoming journalism
  • Support from owners and colleagues who live and work in Wyoming
  • Competitive compensation and the opportunity to grow with us
  • The satisfaction of making a real difference in your community

This is more than a job—it’s a chance to help rebuild and reimagine trusted local journalism at a crucial moment.
