Broadcasting & Cable seeks tech correspondent

Broadcasting & Cable is looking for a technology correspondent to fill a marquee position on a full-time contract basis.

Given our unique history and pedigree covering the business of television in every aspect, this role offers a front-row seat for the massive tech-driven upheaval changing every part of the landscape, from programming to distribution to local broadcasting.

Our tech pro will cover all companies with significant stakes in the TV game, from Netflix and Apple to Amazon and PlayStation, plus social networks, traditional networks, MVPDs, OTTs, station groups and the vendors delivering programmatic advertising, cloud-based systems, content discovery tools and more.

Their timely and sharp analysis will travel across our website, newsletters and weekly print magazine. They will contribute as a curator and moderator at many of our dozen-plus conferences we mount each year, notably under our Next TV brand, which stages events in San Francisco, New York and Los Angeles.

Does this sound like you? Do you have a combination of industriousness and thoughtfulness, posting stories quickly and with versatility while also lending your own insights and not just repurposing press releases?

If so, please send us a résumé, work samples and ideas for three tech stories that are suitable to B&C’s audience.
