Journalism Internship

Media Organization: Slate Magazine

Company Description

Slate is a daily Web magazine. Founded in 1996, we are a general-interest publication offering analysis and commentary about politics, news, business, technology, and culture.

Job Description

Slate.com's New York office is looking for applicants for a fall internship with the Photo and Art department. Applicants must be matriculated students, available at least 15 hours a week for 10-12 weeks starting in early September. Interns will gain hands-on experience editing photos, creating slideshows and selecting art for an award-winning online magazine. This is an editing — not shooting — internship, however there are ample opportunities for motivated interns to work on special projects and publish their work.
