ATVN is looking for candidates who are hyper-aware of the news and feel comfortable mining the web, including social networks, for the most popular stories and identifiying the next big story. While the segment will be scripted, candidates should feel comfortable adlibbing and bantering. This is an ideal opportunity for people looking to get on-camera experience as well as producing and editing time.
