Newspaper/website internships

The Christian Science Monitor is a 24/7 news website with a global readership. The Monitor also publishes a weekly news magazine, which includes both material unique to the print product and stories that also appear on the Monitor's website. The Monitor offers a highly selective internship program. Interns have an opportunity for hands-on experience in a range of departments - the US and world news desks, the op-ed section, and various features areas. Activities may include writing short items for the paper or website, doing research, and assisting the photo and graphics departments. It may also include some everyday office-management tasks. At the discretion of the editors, interns can assist with editing and contacting correspondents and contributors, as well as reporting their own stories. Some may work on special web projects. Multi-media experience such as flash/action and audio/video-editing skills are a significant plus. Generally, the minimum time requirement for paid or academic-credit internships is 35 hours a week.
