The Idaho Statesman seeks two enterprising young journalists to serve as paid interns in its award-winning newsroom in Boise, one of the fastest-growing metro areas in America. At the Idaho Statesman, we put a premium on breaking stories first as well as investing in hard-nosed, accountability journalism that our audience can’t get anywhere else. Our journalism focuses on our local communities, and in that role we have the ability to spotlight problems, highlight solutions and truly make a difference -- all the reasons you got into journalism. And we are part of McClatchy, a digitally driven company focused on innovation, with newsrooms in 30 communities in the United States. In the last three years, our team has exposed problematic COVID-19 data reporting, examined all the ways the state has tried to shield its death-penalty practices from the public and produced a series of stories spotlighting the individual struggles caused by our housing crisis. That work has resulted in numerous awards, including Idaho Press Club awards for an investigative report, special coverage and rookie of the year for 2021. We are located in Boise, Idaho, a community that lands on many best-of lists for its quality of life. Our community features unique restaurants, many opportunities for outdoor recreation and a lively arts scene.
