WCBI-TV has an immediate opening for a full-time Reporter/Multimedia Journalist.
We want someone ready to learn how to tell a story and learn why journalism matters to our
community. Our next MMJ will be creative, self-starting, ready to learn, and be a positive

quality of their story-telling ability.
