Media and Politics Reporter

Leading Hollywood industry news website TheWrap is seeking a versatile writer who is comfortable covering where media and politics intersect. The writer should be ready to tackle industry news, media, politics, film and TV. Are you passionate about how the media covers politics, and where those two worlds meet? The ideal candidate is not someone who just waits around for an assignment (though there will certainly be plenty). You know how to spot a good story before it becomes a top trending topic (particularly on broadcast and cable networks) — and can write about it in a way that stands out from other outlets’ approach. Your copy should be clean, clever and conversational. Knowledge of AP style and love of a good headline is strongly preferred. The ideal candidate will be highly organized, energetic and capable of multitasking in a real-time news environment.
