    I was never a senior editor, but I worked under/with them. I can answer as much as I can, and will get answers for those things I can't answer myself.

    Is this a job entry-level people can get? Please, no snark.

    This is not an entry-level job.

    Hey, bucko. A couple hints:

    1. When someone posts a link to a job, open it before asking ridiculous questions.
    2. Any job title with a "senior" in front of it is generally not going to be an entry level position.

    Yeah, asking if a senior job at ESPN is an entry-level position is a bit of a "DUH!" question. You were about as nice as you could be on it.

    Yup, saw those. I check in now and then to see what's out there.

    I will say this: If the shift remains the same as the person who left (which I have NO IDEA), this WAS a Wed-Sat shift. It's 11 hours a day (hour for lunch), four days a week. 4 p.m.-3 a.m. It's a bit weird at first, but it's a great schedule. I was there for the worst winter they'd had in a while (at the time) and the cities are so prepared for that shit, it's not even funny. They plow the parking lots at work, so you're good there too.

    Good people on the news desk, good people on the TV desk.

    OK, I'll ask: Any idea on salary range?

    I don't know how much seniors make. But it's enough to live well in CT, which isn't cheap. I was just an associate editor, and I had an $1100 apartment and paid their obscene gas prices. :D
