Accountability/Watchdog Reporter

Full descriptions with salary ranges and benefits will be posted at www.CVLocalJournalism.org Contact: Editor in Chief Michelle Morgante at michelle@cvlocaljournalism.org

This text-based reporter will aggressively dig into the actions of public institutions and government representatives to increase transparency and accountability on behalf of the public. The ideal candidate should be a curious and tenacious pursuer of facts and documentation, someone who has a keen eye for details and is eager to “follow the money.” This reporter has superb news judgment and consistently probes below the surface to trace how budgets are spent, contracts are made and deals are crafted. It requires someone who can sense when things aren’t adding up or when something has been left out or unsaid.
