This job description may be a clue as to why KM's newscasts are overproduced messes.
I'm glad to see them growing their staff at a time when most othes are going the other way
thank god minimum wage is going up year after year.. this position should pay over $8/hour next year
Is Julian Ivey still doing web stuff for KM or is this ad for a relacement?
Any idea of how much it really pays?
At this time I have chosen to accept the job. Thank you.
@ 10:16pm - Sorry to hear that McDonalds didn't pan out for you...
Why would I work at McDonalds? I'm not a fan of Irish food.
Sadly, KM probably does pay close to minimum wage... AND LOOK AT ALL THE REQUIREMENTS! TV sucks.
Julian's still there-doing a great job for all the JBG stations. This is a new position.
