New York Times hunting for journalist to open bureau in Australia
The New York Times is officially on the hunt for a journalist to open a bureau in Australia.
The American newspaper company confirmed to Crikey at the end of August that it was “focused on Australia”; however, it remained coy as to what that might look like.
According to a job ad, Australia as a market “is an important part of our international expansion strategy”.
The mission for the “experienced, entrepreneurial journalist with excellent writing skills” is to tell “an untapped reservoir of fascinating stories…to Australians themselves and the world”.
So the failing New York Times think they can ship yet another job out of our great country? Not on my watch. They are so dishonest!
NYT, for those who don’t subscribe, has had reporters based in Sydney for many years. Michelle Innis, Matt Siegel, Meraiah Foley.. and way, way back Nicholas D Kristof spent time here writing.
