Responsibilities
What You'll Do:
The hired individual will oversee the news production during the course of a daypart and will be responsible for creating rundowns, selecting sound to air during newscasts, writing and approving copy, and coordinating with the digital content team. This is a WGA union role that is positioned within the morning drive daypart which will require early morning call times.
Writers work off an assigned lineup drawing information from resource copy, the audio file, and appropriate network sources. With limited opportunity for detailed review of copy before airing, writers must "get it right the first time" and be able to work effectively under pressure.

Editor directs assistant producers to take in tape and feeds, and works with newsroom personnel to pursue breaking stories.
Editor coordinates coverage, when required.
While writers and editors will from time to time be responsive to people outside the newsroom. These interactions may include, but are not limited to, responding to listener inquiries, talking to city or suburban government officials, police and fire officials about breaking news events, and discussing coverage plans with news partners and Audacy.
Depending on the needs of our 24/7 newsroom, shifts can include weekends and holidays.
