I can provide details about this job if anyone wants them. PM me.

 

Damn rock throwers.

 

Is it true that no one who doesn't already live in NY need not apply to this job?

 

Any young journalist looking to cut their teeth in the No. 1 media market would be wise to take this job, no matter what it pays. My first gig was in N.C. for about 14G a year in the 90s -- and not the 1890s. This probably won't pay much more, relative to cost of living but any self-motivated writer could get priceless experience and clips.

Also, Lou Parajos is as good a newspaper man, and just man, as there is in the business.

 

And on the salary they'll pay you, you'll be able to afford a deluxe refrigerator box!

 

that's what the ad on jjobs says.

 

Sucks to be me I guess...o well.

 

TFCI, Lou.
