Job Description

WPSD Local 6, the dominant legacy NBC affiliate in Paducah, Kentucky (DMA 90), has an open Weekend Evening Anchor/MMJ position. The ideal candidate is a leader, mentor, and compelling storyteller who can connect with our audience across multiple platforms. You will anchor our Saturday and Sunday evening newscasts, while also reporting three days per week, telling stories that matter most to the people who live in our four-state region. We're looking for a journalist who isn't afraid to speak truth to power and understands the importance of FOIAs, transparency, accountability, and public records. Someone who asks tough questions, pushes for answers, and helps elevate the newsroom's journalism every day is the candidate we need most. This is very much a leadership role. Our anchors are expected to be newsroom leaders, setting the tone editorially, mentoring younger journalists, and contributing ideas that strengthen our coverage. Strong writing, shooting, and editing skills are essential. We have an outstanding group of photographers, but we value anchors who are hands-on and aren't afraid to pick up a camera when the story calls for it. You should be comfortable reporting in the field, breaking news, and producing enterprise content that goes beyond the daily rundown. This is an opportunity to make an impact in a newsroom where strong journalism still matters. Two years of experience is preferred but not required. If you think you're the ideal candidate for this position, include a complete resume and links to examples of what you think proves your case to Jeff Bidwell, News Director at jbidwell@WPSDLocal6.com . WPSD-TV is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, age, national origin, or disability.
