Investigative Reporter

WSYX/WTTE is searching for our next on-air PROBLEM SOLVER - a reporter who fights for viewers and gets results.

If you're driven by helping people, digging into tough questions, and holding the powerful accountable, this is your newsroom. We're looking for a reporter with strong investigative instincts, a compassionate approach, and the creativity to turn real-world viewer concerns into compelling storytelling.

This is a role for someone who loves solutions as much as they love storytelling-someone who can take complex issues, break them down clearly, and guide people toward answers.

• Investigate viewer complaints, consumer issues, and community concerns
• Identify trends, track down answers, and deliver solutions that make a difference
• Create, write, shoot, and edit stories for broadcast, digital, and social platforms
• Provide clear, empathetic on-air reporting that empowers audiences
• Hold businesses, agencies, and institutions accountable-fairly and accurately
• Build strong relationships with viewers and community partners
• Work closely with Producers, Editors, Anchors, & News Directors to elevate your reporting

• A passion for helping people and uncovering meaningful solutions
• Strong investigative instincts and the ability to follow a trail until it leads somewhere
• Experience working with newsroom systems and media production tools
• Excellent writing, research, and storytelling skills
• 5 years of experience in reporting (consumer or investigative experience a plus)
• The ability to stay organized, calm, and focused when deadlines are tight
• A commitment to accuracy, fairness, and ethical journalism

• Curious minds who ask "Why?"
• Journalists who enjoy sorting out confusion and making things clear
• Reporters who believe journalism is a public service
• Storytellers who want their work to have real-world impact
