Freelance writing, RaleighPublicRecord.com, pays $50-$200 per news article (Raleigh, NC)

Love to harass public officials and business bigwigs? Can't wait to dig into the local government budget? Dream of visualizing school data? We want to talk to you.

The Raleigh Public Record is looking for freelance reporters to develop and report news stories in Raleigh.

We're a nonprofit, online-only news publication serving Raleigh by reporting the stories that go unreported or under-reported by other area news outlets. Our topics include city and county government, development, environment, transportation, growth and community issues.

Knowledge of Raleigh helpful. Some prior news experience preferred. Curiosity and a passion for accurate reporting a must.

The Record pays $50-$200 per news article. Pay for investigative and enterprise stories varies by project.

The "nonprofit" part means we don't have a lot of money or even office space, but we work hard and believe in the need for strong local journalism. Check us out at www.raleighpublicrecord.org.

If that sounds like a team you'd like to join, send letter, clips and resume to editor-at-raleighpublicrecord.org. Bonus points for Raleigh-centric story ideas.
