    You're hired!
     
  3. Just kidding ... but this is definitely a good gig. If I keep hearing all this good stuff about it, I might be so inclined to inquire. Not sure I wanna give up the deep south for the cold midwest.

    I'm glad there's so much love on here!

    I'll bet this job is a great one. Big boy job to say the least. Good luck to all who applies for it.

    If you're a young journalist, go after this opening with gusto. This is a great job. Not only for the beat itself, but also the people around you that will help develop you.

    Football, hunting and lots of corn.

    What more could a guy want?

    It does sound like a great gig. Adding a beat writer in this day and time? Sweet.

    This is a great paper for its size. There's great people on the staff. The paper covers the Huskers like a pro team and does a better job of it than many papers that do have pro sports. Yes, it's Nebraska, but this is a perfect spot for a good young reporter.

    If you're looking for a job and not applying for this one, you probably don't have a pulse.

    Good luck to the person who gets it.

    Lincoln is a great place to live and work, and you'll be surrounded by some of the best people in the business.
     
  11. I think the prevailing thought of people who seem down on this opening, and granted it's people who aren't from the area, - "It's Nebraska."
     
  12. I know someone who hears Nebraska's fight song -- "There is no place like Nebraska" -- and he always adds, "thank God."
    However, I love that area and could see this being a really good job for someone.
