Housekeeping Be My Replacement (The Stranger is Looking for a News Intern)!

Posted by (current) news intern Garrett McCulloch

Do you spend your days dreaming of digging through court records to find out terrible things about secret Republican politicians? Or following the often mind-numbing actions of the city and county councils? Or perhaps fighting grizzly bears?

How about doing two of those three things for free? (You have to pay to see the bears.) If so, we have the opportunity of a lifetime. The Stranger is looking for a news intern.

Just think—the Slog posts you will post! The arcane information you will look up! The Morning News-es you will post on weekends still slightly drunk with a screaming headache at 8 a.m.! I have lived through all of those experiences, and emerged stronger.

Interested? Send an e-mail telling us why you should be the chosen one (with two or three clips or other writing samples, if you've got 'em) to newsintern@thestranger.com.

I like all the posts about journalism being dead and how they're turning down internships left and right, and then suddenly there's a "OH HEY COME WORK FOR FREE" post. Classic!
