Part tech beat, part culture writing, part buzzy local scoops, this job calls for a journalist who’s eager and able to explore the many ways that media shapes modern life, in Boston and beyond. They will cover our region’s advertising and publishing industries and keep an eye on the bold-faced names of local TV, yes. But they’ll also dive into the endless evolution of social media, debates over digital privacy, and the roiling challenges of misinformation in all its forms, from Twitter and Threads to TikTok and new platforms using artificial intelligence.
This reporter will help readers make sense of all these modern woes and tell stories about people and companies in New England that are trying to save us from ourselves (and also profit from us).We’re looking for a versatile and digital-savvy reporter who is (at least) two steps ahead of the rest of us when it comes to figuring out how people consume and share information – and what that means – and is able to turn big ideas into concrete, digestible stories. If that’s you, we’d love to hear from you, and we’ll tell you all about the smart, collaborative, and growing Business team that you’d be a part of.
