Dow Jones News Fund names Summer 24 biz reporting interns

The Dow Jones News Fund has named 31 students as business reporting interns for the Summer of 2024.

The business reporting program continues to be the News Fund’s largest.

American University will host 10 business reporting interns in Washington, D.C. The training will focus on the intersection of business and government regulations, covering topics such as the workplace, technology, small business and student loans. The program will be led by Paul Albergo, former Bloomberg Industry Group executive editor.

Another group of business reporters will meet in New York City to learn how to cover the major economic forces in America while refining their writing, pitching and interviewing skills. This program will be led by Sara Silver, chair of business journalism at Quinnipiac University.

Celebrating its 10th anniversary, the American City Business Journals-Dow Jones News Fund Business Reporting Program will return to New York City under the leadership of Garry D. Howard, director of corporate initiatives at American City Business Journals and a News Fund board member; and Silver. The training will prepare 10 interns to report in 10 different ACBJ markets this summer.
