Come do the real thing!

Description:

First real job. Real newsroom. Mountain town.

We are a family-owned, independent, weekly newspaper in the best mountain town in the West, where people still read the paper, still call the newsroom when something doesn’t look right, and still believe a newspaper ought to know what’s going on.

We want someone who can write, ask questions and learn fast.

You’ll cover real news:
local government, schools, courts, sports, breaking news, features and the people who make this place work.

You will report.
You will write.
You will ask questions that matter and need answered.

What Makes This Job Different

Most early-career reporters today are given narrow assignments and little responsibility. And certainly no guidance.

Here, you’ll be trusted with real coverage from the start.

You’ll also be joining a group of family-owned newspapers that still believes local journalism is worth fighting for. The Courier is affiliated with 17 community newspapers across Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Idaho, South Dakota, New Mexico, and Michigan — independent publications working to keep local reporting alive in places that would otherwise lose it.

You will learn fast, because you will be doing the work.
