Reporter

BridgeTower Media is seeking an experienced and versatile journalist to write for two of its award-winning legal publications, North Carolina Lawyers Weekly and South Carolina Lawyers Weekly.

The reporter, who would be based out of Columbia, South Carolina, down the street from the state capitol, should have a keen interest in covering the law and courts. The position also presents the opportunity to write about business trends, technology and state-level politics.

The reporter will develop assigned beats, cultivate sources throughout the state, and generate their own original story ideas. He or she will write stories for daily publication online and weekly publication in print, aimed at a discerning audience that cares deeply about the stories we publish.

The ideal candidate will be able to write about complex topics in a clear, concise, and engaging writing style. He or she will also have proven news judgment and understand the needs of a niche publication. Past experience writing about the law is a significant plus, but above all we are looking for a reporter with a voracious curiosity about the law and a willingness to learn.
