The summer program also provides weekly seminars in which participants join with regular Newsday staff members in informal discussions.

Internships are available in the following areas: Business Reporting, Computer Assisted Reporting, Copy Editing, Explore LI Reporting, Graphics and Design, Local News Reporting, Opinion, Photography and Sports Reporting.

Who we’re looking for

Social media super-users
We create for the social web, and we need a team that lives on it. Tweet, Snap, Tumble – and know what makes a piece of content shareable online.

Web obsessives
Check Reddit before you read the Washington Post (but read both) and find viral videos before they’re on Gawker.

News junkies
If can’t tell us something about what’s going on in Egypt and don’t have a favorite for Best Picture, this gig probably isn’t for you.

Visual thinkers
We tell stories visually. Have a great eye for compelling video, a love of interesting graphics and a knack for choosing the best image to convey meaning.

Hilarious creatives, glint-eyed geniuses and undercover hipsters
If you bound in here bursting with big and weird ideas for how to rethink the news, lots of energy and a great attitude, you’ll fit right in.

Interns should have experience in Final Cut Pro or Adobe Premiere.
